UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

GORDON C. REID,

Plaintiff,

v.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, et al.,

Defendants.

CASE NO. 1:14-cv-01163-LJO-MJS (PC)

ORDER DISCHARGING ORDER TO 

SHOW CAUSE 

(ECF No. 46)

Plaintiff is a federal prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil 

rights and tort action brought pursuant to Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents, 403 

U.S. 388 (1971) and the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C. §§ 1346(b), 2671-2680.

On October 31, 2016, the District Judge ordered Plaintiff to submit service 

documents for Defendant J. Ontiveroz within thirty days. (ECF No. 45.) The thirty day 

deadline passed without Plaintiff submitting service documents or requesting an 

extension of time in which to do so. Accordingly, on December 12, 2016, the 

undersigned ordered Plaintiff to show cause why the action should not be dismissed for 

failure to obey a court order and failure to prosecute. (ECF No. 46.) Plaintiff’s service 

documents were docketed later the same day.

As Plaintiff now has submitted the service documents ordered by the Court, the
