UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

DEXTER BROWN, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

PURUSHOTTAMA SAGIREDDY, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:14-cv-0338 JAM AC P 

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 

 Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a civil rights action pursuant to 42 

U.S.C. § 1983. On April 21, 2016, defendant Sagireddy filed a motion to dismiss. On May 23, 

2016, after plaintiff failed to respond to the motion, plaintiff was ordered to file an opposition or a 

statement of non-opposition to the pending motion within twenty-one days. ECF No. 73. In the 

same order, plaintiff was informed that failure to file an opposition would result in a 

recommendation that the claims against defendant Sagireddy be dismissed without prejudice for 

failure to prosecute pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). The twenty-one-day 

period has now expired, and plaintiff has not responded to the court’s order. 

 For the foregoing reasons, IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED that the claims against 

defendant Sagireddy be dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute pursuant to Federal 

Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b).
