IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

TRACY STEWART, 

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-06-1333 DFL GGH P

vs.

KEITH HIGGINS, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

By Order, filed on November 7, 2006, plaintiff’s claims as to certain of the

defendants in plaintiff’s original complaint were dismissed with leave to amend within thirty

days. Upon plaintiff’s request, he was granted an extension of time by Order, filed on January 3,

2007, to file an amended complaint. By letter filed on January 31, 2007, plaintiff informed the

court that he could not meet even the extended deadline due to difficulties he faced, stating that

he would therefore “decline to amend.” In a subsequent filing, which includes an extensive

number of exhibits, plaintiff states that he believes he has been subject to harassment/retaliation

for the filing of this action and strongly implies that he only declined to amend because he was

denied adequate law library time. The court will grant plaintiff one further opportunity to file an

amended complaint. There will be no further extension of time.
