UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

FELTON LOVE, JR., 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

JEFF MACOMBER, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:23-cv-00790-DJC-EFB (PC) 

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 

Plaintiff, a state prisoner, proceeds without counsel in an action brought under 42 U.S.C. 

§ 1983. This proceeding was referred to this court by Local Rule 302 pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 

§ 636(b)(1). 

 On September 6, 2023, the court dismissed plaintiff’s claims against defendants Jeff 

Macomber and Tracy Johnson for failure to state a claim, with leave to amend within 30 days. 

ECF No. 26. The court dismissed all of plaintiff’s remaining claims with prejudice. Id. The 

court cautioned plaintiff that failure to file the amended complaint within the time provided may 

result in dismissal of the action. Id. Despite an extension of time, plaintiff has not filed an 

amended complaint or otherwise responded to the court’s order. ECF No. 28. Thus, it appears 

that plaintiff is unable or unwilling to cure the defects in the complaint. 

It is therefore RECOMMENDED that this action be DISMISSED without prejudice for 

failure to state a claim and the Clerk of Court be directed to close the case.
