UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DANTE L. LOVE,

Petitioner,

v.

WILLIAM KNIPP,

Respondent.

No. 2:14-cv-2817 JAM CKD P

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Petitioner is a California prisoner proceeding pro se with an application for writ of habeas 

corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. On May 18, 2015, respondent filed a motion to dismiss. On June 

29, 2015, the court ordered petitioner to file an opposition or statement of non-opposition to the 

motion. Petitioner was warned that failure to do so would result in a recommendation that this 

action be dismissed for failure to follow court orders pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 

41(a). The time for filing an opposition or statement of non-opposition has now expired without 

petitioner filing an opposition or statement of non-opposition. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED that this action be dismissed pursuant to 

Rule 41(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

These findings and recommendations are submitted to the United States District Judge 

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

after being served with these findings and recommendations, any party may file written

objections with the court and serve a copy on all parties. Such a document should be captioned 

“Objections to Magistrate Judge’s Findings and Recommendations.” In his objections petitioner 

may address whether a certificate of appealability should issue in the event he files an appeal of 

the judgment in this case. See Rule 11, Federal Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases (the district 

court must issue or deny a certificate of appealability when it enters a final order adverse to the 

applicant). Any response to the objections shall be served and filed within fourteen days after 

service of the objections. The parties are advised that failure to file objections within the 

specified time may waive the right to appeal the District Court’s order. Martinez v. Ylst, 951 

F.2d 1153 (9th Cir. 1991).
