IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ADINADAB ISRAEL,

Plaintiff, CIV S-05-0425 MCE KJM PS

v.

ESTHER VOLKAN, et al.,

Defendants. FINDINGS & RECOMMENDATIONS

 /

A status conference was set before the undersigned for July 27, 2005. Plaintiff

failed to appear.

As provided by Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m), the court may dismiss an

action where service of summons is not made within 120 days after the filing of the complaint. 

In the order setting status conference, filed March 3, 2005, plaintiff was cautioned that this action

may be dismissed if service was not timely completed. This action was filed March 3, 2005 and

plaintiff has not yet served defendants with summons.

Moreover, there is no apparent basis for subject matter jurisdiction in this action,

which essentially contests actions taken in a state worker’s compensation case. Plaintiff invokes

28 U.S.C. § 1651 as the basis of subject matter jurisdiction. That section, however, does not

confer jurisdiction on this court. See Jackson v. Vasquez, 1 F.3d 885, 889 (9th Cir.1993) (court

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED that this action be dismissed.

These findings and recommendations are submitted to the United States District

Judge assigned to the case pursuant to the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l). Within ten days
