ORDER

Plaintiff Hai Van Le, who is confined in the Arizona State Prison Complex-Lewis,

in Buckeye, Arizona, filed a pro se civil rights Complaint pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and

paid the $350.00 filing fee. In an Order filed on May 31, 2011, the Court dismissed the

Complaint with leave to amend within 30 days. (Doc. 3.) On June 16, 2011, Plaintiff filed

a motion for a 30-day extension of time. (Doc. 4.) Although Plaintiff fails to state a reason

for seeking the extension, the Court will grant his motion. 

Warnings

A. Address Changes

Plaintiff must file and serve a notice of a change of address in accordance with Rule

83.3(d) of the Local Rules of Civil Procedure. Plaintiff must not include a motion for other

action.

B Copies

Plaintiff must submit an additional copy of every filing for use by the Court. See

LRCiv 5.4. Failure to comply may result in the filing being stricken without further notice

to Plaintiff.

C. Possible “Strike”

Because the Complaint has been dismissed for failure to state a claim, if Plaintiff fails

to file an amended complaint correcting the deficiencies identified in the May 31, 2011

Order, the dismissal may count as a “strike” under the “3-strikes” provision of 28 U.S.C.

§ 1915(g). Under the 3-strikes provision, a prisoner may not bring a civil action or appeal

a civil judgment in forma pauperis under 28 U.S.C. § 1915 “if the prisoner has, on 3 or more

prior occasions, while incarcerated or detained in any facility, brought an action or appeal

in a court of the United States that was dismissed on the grounds that it is frivolous,

malicious, or fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, unless the prisoner is

under imminent danger of serious physical injury.” 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). 

D. Possible Dismissal

If Plaintiff fails to timely comply with every provision of this Order, including these

warnings, the Court may dismiss this action without further notice. See Ferdik, 963 F.2d at

1260-61 (a district court may dismiss an action for failure to comply with any order of the

Court).

IT IS ORDERED: 

(1) Plaintiff’s motion for a 30-day extension of time to file a first amended

complaint is granted to the extent stated below. (Doc. 4.)

(2) Plaintiff is granted an additional 30 days in which to file a first amended

complaint in compliance with the May 31, 2011 Order, doc. 3.

(3) If Plaintiff fails to file an amended complaint within the extension granted

herein, the Clerk of Court must, without further notice, enter a judgment of dismissal of this

action with prejudice that states that the dismissal may count as a “strike” under 28 U.S.C.
