CASE NO. 1:07-cv-00550-LJO-NEW (DLB) PC

ORDER DISMISSING ACTION AS

DUPLICATIVE OF CASE NUMBER 1:07-CV00231-LJO-SMS PC, AND DIRECTING

CLERK’S OFFICE TO CLOSE FILE

Plaintiff John E. West (“plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se in this civil rights

action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This action was filed in the Northern District of California on

February 14, 2007, and transferred to this Court on April 10, 2007. A review of the actions filed by

in this Court revealed that the complaint in case number 1:07-cv-00231-LJO-SMS (PC) West v.

Yates, et al., filed by plaintiff on February 12, 2007, is identical to the complaint in this action. 

Accordingly, it is HEREBY ORDERED that this action is dismissed as duplicative of case

number 1:07-cv-00231-LJO-SMS (PC), and the Clerk’s Office shall close the file.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
