UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ALEXIS AMACKER,

Plaintiff,

v.

JOHNSON AND JOHNSON,

Defendant.

Case No. 16-cv-00851-DMR 

ORDER OF DISMISSAL WITHOUT 

PREJUDICE FOR FAILURE TO

PROSECUTE; INSTRUCTIONS TO 

THE CLERK TO RETURN PAPERS TO 

PLAINTIFF

Re: Dkt. No. 6

On February 19, 2016, Plaintiff Alexis Amacker filed a complaint against Johnson and 

Johnson and an application to proceed In Forma Pauperis. [Docket Nos. 1 and 2.] 

On March 16, 2016, the court issued an order granting Plaintiff’s application to proceed In 

Forma Pauperis and dismissing his complaint, due to numerous deficiencies, with leave to amend 

by March 31, 2016. [Docket No. 6.] The court informed Plaintiff that failure to file an amended 

complaint by March 31, 2016 could result in dismissal of the case without prejudice for failure to 

prosecute. [Docket No. 6 at 3.] Plaintiff did not file an amend complaint by March 31, 2016. 

On May 2, 2016, the court received additional papers from Plaintiff. These papers do not 

appear to be an amended complaint. If they are intended to be an amended complaint they suffer 

from the same deficiencies identified in the court’s prior order. Further, they are not timely, as 

they were submitted to the court over a month after Plaintiff’s deadline to file an amended 

complaint.
