UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

LOUIS A. ALARCON,

 Plaintiff,

 vs.

C. XOYOUDOM, et al.,

 Defendants.

1:17-cv-01632-AWI-JDP 

 

ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND 

RECOMMENDATIONS, ORDER 

DISMISSING CASE WITHOUT 

PREJUDICE, and ORDER DENYING 

PENDING MOTIONS AS MOOT

(Doc. Nos. 23, 27, 41, 44, and 45)

Louis A. Alarcon (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis

with this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The matter was referred to a United 

States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302. 

On September 30, 2019, the Magistrate Judge entered findings and recommendations, 

recommending that this case be dismissed, without prejudice, based on Plaintiff’s own motion to 

dismiss the case. (ECF Nos. 44 and 45.) Neither party filed objections. 

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636 (b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 304, this 

court has conducted a de novo review of this case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the 

court finds the findings and recommendations to be supported by the record and proper analysis. 

Additionally, there are several motions that remain pending, a motion for extension of the 

discovery deadline (Doc. No. 23), a motion to compel interrogatory responses (Doc. No. 27), and 

a motion to compel document production (Doc. No. 41). With the dismissal of this case pursuant

to Rule 41, these pending motions will all be denied as moot.
