UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

JOHN L DAVIS, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

UNKNOWN, 

Defendant. 

Case No. 16-cv-04517-MEJ (PR) 

ORDER OF DISMISSAL 

This action was opened in error on August 10, 2016 when the Court received a letter 

labeled “my copy” from Plaintiff that was a near duplicate of a letter filed in a previously-filed 

action – Case No. C 16-4487 MEJ (PR). Thus it appears the letter was intended to be filed in Case 

No. C 16-4487 MEJ (PR) or was intended to be file-endorsed and returned to him in Case No. C 

16-4487 MEJ (PR). 

Accordingly, the Clerk is directed to remove Plaintiff’s letter from this action, to file it in 

his previously-filed action, Case No. C 16-4487 MEJ (PR), and to docket it as “Plaintiff’s Letter,” 

marked as filed on August 10, 2016, the date it was received by the Court. The Clerk shall also 

send Plaintiff a file-endorsed copy of the letter. 

The present action is DISMISSED because it was opened in error. No filing fee is due. 

The Clerk shall close the file. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

Dated:
