On March 22, 2010, the Court screened Plaintiff's first amended complaint pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A and found that Plaintiff's first amended complaint failed to state a claim upon which relief can be granted under Section 1983. (Doc. #15.) Plaintiff was informed of the deficiencies in his claims and was directed to file a second amended complaint within 30 days of the date of service of the March 22, 2010 screening order. Plaintiff has not filed a second amended complaint. Because Plaintiff has not filed a second amended complaint, the Court will recommend dismissal of this action with prejudice for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. See Ferdik v. Bonzelet, 963 F.2d 1258, 1261 (9th Cir. 1992) (dismissal with prejudice upheld where court had instructed plaintiff regarding deficiencies in prior order dismissing claim with leave to amend). Accordingly, it is HEREBY RECOMMENDED that this action be dismissed for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. 1 v.
