IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DAVID BENNETT, No. 2:13-CV-2295-CMK-P

Plaintiff, 

vs. ORDER

BUTTE COUNTY POLICE

DEPARTMENT,

Defendant.

 /

Plaintiff, a prisoner proceeding pro se, brings this civil rights action pursuant to 

42 U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff has consented to Magistrate Judge jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C.

§ 636(c) and no other party has been served or appeared in the action. On February 24, 2016, the

court directed plaintiff to show cause in writing why this action should not be dismissed for

failure to state a claim. Plaintiff was warned that failure to respond could result in dismissal of

the action for the reasons outlined in the order and for failure to prosecute. To date, plaintiff has

not responded to the court’s order to show cause. This action will, therefore, be dismissed for

failure to state a claim and for lack of prosecution.
