ORDE R On September 10, 2010, the Magistrate Judge recommended that plaintiff's complaint be dismissed for failure to file as directed an amended complaint. On September 22, 2010, plaintiff was again directed by this Court to file on, or before, October 4, 2010, an amended complaint explaining only one of his constitutional claims, identifying each defendant, explaining exactly what each defendant did that violated his rights, and explaining exactly how each defendant injured plaintiff.

Plaintiff has now timely filed his amended complaint. Based upon plaintiff's compliance, the recommendation for dismissal which was filed before plaintiff's compliance is now moot and, as such, is not adopted by the Court.
