UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KASEY F. HOFFMAN,

Plaintiff,

v.

KEVIN JONES,

Defendant.

No. 2:15-cv-1735 KJN P

ORDER AND

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Plaintiff is a county prisoner, proceeding pro se. Plaintiff’s complaint was filed with the 

court on July 24, 2015. The court’s own records reveal that on July 24, 2015, plaintiff filed a 

complaint containing virtually identical allegations. (2:15-cv-1729 CKD P).1 Due to the 

duplicative nature of the present action, the court recommends that this most-recent complaint be 

dismissed.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court is directed to assign 

a district judge to this case; and

IT IS RECOMMENDED that this action be dismissed without prejudice. See Fed. R. Civ. 

P. 41(b).

500, 505 (9th Cir. 1986); United States v. Wilson, 631 F.2d 118, 119 (9th Cir. 1980).

case pursuant to the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l). Within fourteen days after being served 

with these findings and recommendations, plaintiff may file written objections with the court.

Recommendations.” Plaintiff is advised that failure to file objections within the specified time 

may waive the right to appeal the District Court’s order. Martinez v. Ylst, 951 F.2d 1153 (9th
