UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KASEY F. HOFFMAN,

Plaintiff,

v.

LASSEN ADULT DETENTION 

FACILITY, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2: 15-cv-1558 KJN P

ORDER

Plaintiff is a prisoner, proceeding without counsel, with a civil rights action pursuant to 42 

U.S.C. § 1983. On July 29, 2015, the undersigned dismissed plaintiff’s complaint with leave to 

amend. (ECF No. 4.) Pending before the court is plaintiff’s amended complaint filed August 10, 

2015. (ECF No. 6.)

Plaintiff alleges that he was denied a Kosher diet in violation of his constitutional rights. 

However, plaintiff does not clearly identify the defendants. After reviewing the amended 

complaint, it is not clear to the undersigned who plaintiff intends to name as defendants. On this 

ground, the amended complaint is dismissed with leave to amend. If plaintiff files a second 

amended complaint, he shall clearly identify the defendants. Plaintiff’s second amended 

complaint shall also be prepared on the complaint form attached to the instant order.
