UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JEFFREY E. WALKER

Plaintiff,

v.

MINA BESHARA, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:20-cv-1050 JLT HBK (PC)

ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND 

RECOMMENDATION IN FULL, 

DISMISSING THE ACTION WITHOUT 

PREJUDICE, AND DIRECTING THE CLERK 

OF COURT TO CLOSE THE CASE

(Doc. 60)

Jeffrey Walker initiated this action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, seeking to hold the 

defendants liable for violations of his civil rights. The magistrate judge found Plaintiff failed to 

state a claim and granted Plaintiff leave to file an amended complaint. In the alternative, the 

Court informed him that he could notify the Court that he chose to stand on the allegations of the 

First Amended Complaint or file a notice of voluntary dismissal. (Doc. 53.) 

Although the Court granted extensions of time, Plaintiff failed to file an amended 

complaint by the ordered deadline of July 14, 2023. (See Doc. 59.) The magistrate judge found 

Plaintiff failed to prosecute this action and failed to comply with the Court’s orders, and

recommended the case be dismissed without prejudice. (Doc. 60) The Court served the Findings 

and Recommendations on Plaintiff, and it notified him that any objections were due within 14 

days. (Id. at 5.) The Court also informed him that the “failure to file objections within the 

specified time may result in waiver of his rights on appeal.” (Id., citing Wilkerson v. Wheeler,

772 F.3d 834, 839 (9th Cir. 2014), Baxter v. Sullivan, 923 F.2d 1391, 1394 (9th Cir. 1991).) 

Plaintiff did not file any objections and the time to do so has expired. 

According to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C), the Court conducted a de novo review of this 

case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the Court concludes the Findings and 

Recommendation are supported by the record and by proper analysis. Thus, the Court ORDERS:

1. The Findings and Recommendations filed on July 31, 2023 (Doc. 60) are

ADOPTED in full.

2. The action is DISMISSED without prejudice.

3. The Clerk of Court shall close this case.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: September 6, 2023
