Case No. 1:16-cv-00208-LJO-SKO

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATION 

THAT PLAINTIFF’S COMPLAINT BE 

DISMISSED FOR FAILURE TO STATE A 

COGNIZABLE FEDERAL CLAIM

On February 16, 2016, Plaintiff, proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, filed a complaint

against the Los Angeles Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, 

Sacramento. (Doc. 1). On March 15, 2016, the Court dismissed Plaintiff’s complaint with thirty 

days’ leave to amend for failure to state a cognizable federal claim. (Doc. 3.) 

Plaintiff’s amended complaint was due on or before April 20, 2016, and Plaintiff has not 

complied with the order or otherwise communicated with the Court regarding her intention to 

prosecute this action. (See, generally Docket.) As a result, there is no pleading on file which sets 

forth any claims upon which relief may be granted.

Accordingly, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e), IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT this action 

be DISMISSED, with prejudice, based on Plaintiff’s failure to state a claim upon which relief may 

be granted. 

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

Judge assigned to the case, pursuant to the provisions of 28 U.S.C ' 636(b)(1). Within thirty (30) 

days after being served with these Findings and Recommendations, Plaintiff may file written 

objections with the Court. The document should be captioned “Objections to Magistrate Judge’s 

Findings and Recommendations.” Plaintiff is advised that failure to file objections within the 

specified time may constitute waiver of the right to appeal the District Court’s order. Wilkerson v. 

Wheeler, 772 F.3d 834, 839 ((9th Cir. 2014) (citing Baxter v. Sullivan, 923 F.2d 1391, 1394 (9th 

Cir. 1991)). In lieu of filing objections, Plaintiff may file her amended complaint within thirty 

(30) days, and the undersigned will withdraw these findings and recommendations.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
