UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DARRYL RAY MILLS,

Plaintiff,

v.

C. PFEFFER, et al.,

Defendant.

Case No.: 1:20-cv-00195-JLT (PC) 

ORDER DIRECTING CLERK OF COURT 

TO ASSIGN DISTRICT JUDGE; AND

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 

TO DISMISS COMPLAINT WITH LEAVE 

TO AMEND

(Doc. 13)

FOURTEEN-DAY DEADLINE

Previously, the Court screened plaintiff’s complaint and found it to be devoid of a cognizable 

claim. (Doc. 13.) Plaintiff was then granted an opportunity to dismiss the case entirely, file an 

amended complaint, or elect to stand on the complaint. Plaintiff has filed a response indicating his 

intention to stand on the complaint. (Doc. 14.) 

The court therefore ORDERS the Clerk of Court to assign a district judge to this case; and

The court RECOMMENDS that the complaint be dismissed with leave to amend for failure 

to state a claim. 

These Findings and Recommendations will be submitted to the United States District 

Judge assigned to the case, pursuant to the provisions of Title 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l). Within 

fourteen days after being served with these Findings and Recommendations, the parties may file
