On November 10, 2009, the Court issued an order finding that Plaintiff's complaint states cognizable claims against Defendants Junious, Gomez and Berna for violation of the Eighth Amendment, but does not state a cognizable Fourteenth Amendment claim against the remaining defendants. On December 7, 2009, Plaintiff notified the Court that he does not wish to amend and is willing to proceed on the claims found cognizable. Based on Plaintiff's notice, this Findings and Recommendations now issues. See Noll v. Carlson, 809 F. 2d 1446, 1448 (9th Cir. 1987) (prisoner must be given notice of deficiencies and opportunity to amend prior to dismissing for failure to state a claim). Accordingly, it is HEREBY RECOMMENDED that Plaintiff's Fourteenth Amendment claim be dismissed and Defendants Adams, Machenro, Rodriguez, Silva, Lopez-Espinosa, Briggs, Rangel, CDCR and Corcoran State Prison be dismissed. These Findings and Recommendations will be submitted to the United States District Judge 1 v. DERRAL ADAMS, et al., Defendants.
