(IN CHAMBERS) ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

On February 21, 2017, the Court issued an Order dismissing Plaintiff’s civil rights
complaint with leave to amend for failure to state a claim entitling him to relief. (ECF No. 23).
Plaintiff was afforded the opportunity to address the deficiencies identified in the Order or
voluntarily dismiss the complaint by March 23, 2017. Plaintiff was advised that failure to file
an amended complaint or notice of voluntary dismissal by that date may result in dismissal of
the action for failure to prosecute.
As of the date of this order, Plaintiff has not filed an amended complaint, a notice of
voluntary dismissal, or a request for extension of time to do so. Accordingly, Plaintiff is
ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE on or before May 19, 2017, why this action should not be
dismissed for failure to prosecute. Plaintiff may discharge this order by filing an amended
complaint or a notice of voluntary dismissal.
Plaintiff is advised that failure to file a timely response to this order will
result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed for failure to prosecute
and obey court orders. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b); Local Civil Rule 41-1. The Clerk is
directed to attach a Notice of Dismissal Form (CV-009) to this Order.
