DAVID S QUAIR,

Plaintiff,

v.

STEPHANIE GARRATT, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 19-cv-08420-JD 

ORDER DISMISSING 

COMPLAINT

Plaintiff, a state prisoner, has filed a pro se civil rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. 

He has been granted leave to proceed in forma pauperis. A review of the complaint indicates that 

plaintiff seeks relief regarding his underlying conviction and sentence on April 6, 2018, with 

respect to a 39-month plea agreement. Court records indicate that plaintiff recently filed a habeas 

case regarding this same conviction, Quair v. Gastelum, Case No. 20-0179 YGR. Because 

plaintiff has filed a habeas case challenging his conviction, this civil rights action is dismissed as 

duplicative. See Adams v. Cal. Dept. of Health Services, 487 F.3d 684, 688 (9th Cir. 2007). The 

Clerk is requested to close this case.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 23, 2020
