UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

BOB SAVAGE, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

K. DICKINSON, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:11-cv-1652-MCE-EFB P 

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel in an action brought under 42 

U.S.C. § 1983. On March 10, 2015, and May 14, 2015, defendants filed motions for summary 

judgment and informed plaintiff of the requirements for opposing a motion for summary 

judgment. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 56; Rand v. Rowland, 154 F.3d 952, 962-63 (9th Cir. 

1998). Plaintiff’s requests for lengthy extensions of time to file his opposition have been granted. 

See ECF No. 55 (60 day extension of time to oppose March 10 motion for summary judgment) 

and ECF No. 65 (90 day extension of time to oppose both motions for summary judgment). 

That time for acting passed and plaintiff failed to file an opposition or a statement of nonopposition to either motion, or otherwise responded to the court’s order. Plaintiff has disobeyed 

this court’s orders and failed to prosecute this action. The appropriate action is dismissal without 

prejudice.
