1:08-cv-00305-LJO-GSA-PC ORDER DISMISSING DEFENDANTS WELCH, HUERRA, AND BIEVLVE FROM THIS ACTION BASED ON PLAINTIFF'S FAILURE TO PROVIDE INFORMATION SUFFICIENT TO EFFECT SERVICE

Jarrod Gordon ("Plaintiff") is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff filed this action on March 3, 2008. (Doc. 1.) This case now proceeds on the original Complaint, against defendants C/O Welch, C/O Person, C/O Huerra, C/O Gorey, C/O Bievlve, and C/O Smallie, for deliberate indifference to Plaintiff's serious medical needs in violation of the Eighth Amendment. Id. On September 14, 2010, the Court issued an order for Plaintiff to show cause within thirty days why defendants Welch, Huerra, and Bievlve should not be dismissed based on Plaintiff's failure to provide information sufficient to effect service. (Doc. 29.) The thirty day time period has expired, and Plaintiff has not responded to the Court's order to show cause. Plaintiff was forewarned in the order to show cause that his failure to show cause would result in the dismissal of defendants Welch, Huerra, and Bievlve from this action.
