Plaintiff, 

vs. ORDER

G. HOOVER, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, brings this civil rights action pursuant

to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Pending before the court is plaintiff’s request for additional time (Doc. 89). 

On August 5, 2016, the court directed plaintiff to file a status report within 20

days, which plaintiff failed to do. As a result, the undersigned issued findings and

recommendations that this action be dismissed for failure to prosecute. In light of plaintiff’s

request for additional time, the court will vacate the findings and recommendations and allow

plaintiff a short amount of time to file his status report. 

However, the court notes that plaintiff is utilizing the assistance of a fellow

inmate. Plaintiff is cautioned that the filings in this case are his responsibility and if he receives

assistance from someone else, he is still responsible for making any all requests to the court. The

court will not entertain requests or filings which are filed on his behalf without plaintiff’s

participation and signature. See Local Rule 131(b); Fed. R. Civ. P. 11.

may result in the imposition of appropriate sanctions, including dismissal of the action or

preclusion of issues or witnesses. See Local Rule 110. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The Findings and Recommendations issued September 15, 2016 are

vacated;

2. Plaintiff shall file a status report as previously ordered within 30 days of

the date of this order; and

3. The Clerk of the Court is directed to send plaintiff a copy of the August 5,

2016 order.
