UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

LARRY WILLIAMS CORTINAS,

 Plaintiff, 

 v. 

CONALL MCCABE, et al.,

 Defendants.

1:16-cv-558-LJO-MJS

ORDER ON PLAINTIFF’S MOTION 

FOR EXTENSION OF TIME (Doc. 11)

On November 1, 2016, the Court screened Plaintiff’s complaint. Doc. 10 (“Screening Order”). 

The Court found that some of his causes of action stated cognizable claims, but dismissed others with 

leave to amend. Id. at 10. The Court afforded Plaintiff 30 days from the service of the Screening Order 

to file a first amended complaint or inform the Court that he wishes to proceed on only his cognizable 

claims. 

On December 8, 2016, Plaintiff filed a motion asking for 30 additional days to file an amended 

complaint. Doc. 11. Plaintiff states he did not receive the Screening Order until November 17, 2016. Id.

at 2.

Plaintiff’s request is GRANTED. Plaintiff shall file an amended complaint on or before January 

6, 2017. The Court will not grant any further extensions of time. If Plaintiff fails to comply with this 

deadline, his case will proceed on only the claims found cognizable in the Screening Order. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: December 9, 2016 /s/ Lawrence J. O’Neill _____
