IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Jeffery Tyson

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-03-1914 DFL CMK P

vs.

E. Alameida, et al., 

Defendants.

 / ORDER

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

to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On December 23, 2004, the court issued an order directing plaintiff to show

cause within fifteen days why plaintiff had failed to file an amended complaint. On January 10,

2005, plaintiff responded to the order to show cause and filed a motion to amend his complaint,

along with a proposed complaint. On January 20, 2005, the court directed the clerk of the court to

return plaintiff’s proposed amended complaint and ordered plaintiff, to within thirty days, submit

to the court the three copies of the amended complaint required to effect service. 

On February 24, 2005, the court granted plaintiff’s motion to amend his complaint

and again directed plaintiff to file an amended complaint that complied with the Federal Rules of

Civil Procedure and the Local Rules.

The court’s February 24, 2005 order was returned as undeliverable on March 25,

2005. Accordingly, on April 12, 2005, the court issued findings and recommendations

recommending that this action be dismissed for plaintiff’s failure to keep the court appraised of

his current address. On May 5, 2005, plaintiff filed a notice of change of address with the court. 

The court then vacated the April 12, 2005 findings and recommendations. 

A review of the docket indicates that plaintiff was never served with the court’s

February 24, 2005 order directing him to file an amended complaint within thirty days. 

 Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED THAT plaintiff is granted thirty days from the

date of service of this order to file an amended complaint that complies with the requirements of

the Civil Rights Act, the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Local Rules of Practice; the

second amended complaint must bear the docket number assigned to this case and must be labeled

“Second Amended Complaint.” Plaintiff must file an original and two copies of the second

amended complaint. Failure to file a second amended complaint in compliance with this order

will result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed. 

DATED: October 20, 2005.
