UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

LEON E. MORRIS, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

JENNINGS, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:13-cv-1134 TLN AC (TEMP) P 

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 

 Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with this civil rights action brought pursuant 

to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On January 21, 2016, defendants filed a motion to revoke plaintiff’s in 

forma pauperis status. On February 9, 2016, plaintiff filed a motion for a sixty-day (60) extension 

of time to oppose defendants’ motion, which this court granted. That sixty-day period expired, 

and plaintiff had not opposed or otherwise responded to the motion. On April 25, 2016, the court 

ordered plaintiff to show cause in writing within fourteen days why this court should not grant the 

pending motion for summary judgment. The court cautioned plaintiff that his failure to file an 

opposition would result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed. That fourteen-day 

period has now expired, and plaintiff has not opposed defendants’ motion for summary judgment 

or responded to the court’s order. 

 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED that this action be dismissed without 

prejudice pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b).
