UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

DOMINIQUE HENDRIX, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

J. GOMEZ, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:21-cv-1062-EFB P 

ORDER AND FINDINGS AND 

RECOMMENDATIONS 

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in an action brought 

under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On September 13, 2021, the court informed plaintiff that he could 

proceed with an excessive force claim against defendant J. Gomez, or he could file an amended 

complaint in an effort to also state claims against defendants D. Long and M. Saeturn. ECF No. 

11. Plaintiff has elected not to amend his complaint and to proceed only with the claim identified 

by the court. ECF No. 14. 

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court randomly assign a United 

States District Judge to this action.
