FRESNO COUNTY DEPARTMENT, SHERIFF’S CLERK TO CLOSE CASE 13 Defendant. 14 / 15 ORDER 16 Plaintiff James Boone is a former state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma 17 pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On March 1, 2011, the 18 Court screened Plaintiff’s Complaint and found that it failed to state any claims upon which 19 relief could be granted. (ECF No. 10.) The Court dismissed Plaintiff’s Complaint and 20 ordered him to file an amended complaint within thirty days. (Id.) Plaintiff was warned that 21 failure to comply with the Court’s Order may result in dismissal of this action for failure to 22 state a claim upon which relief could be granted. (Id.) 23 On May 20, 2011, the Court issued an Order to Show Cause. (ECF No. 11.) The 24 Show Cause Order again warned Plaintiff that the case would be dismissed if Plaintiff 25 failed to respond to the Order and/or file an amended complaint by June 27, 2011. (Id.) 26 To date, the Court has not received a response to the Show Cause Order and Plaintiff has 27 not filed an amended complaint. As a result, there is no pleading on file which sets forth 28 1 1 any claims upon which relief may be granted. 2 Accordingly, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A and 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e), this action is 3 HEREBY DISMISSED, with prejudice, based on Plaintiff's failure to state any claims upon 4 which relief may be granted under Section 1983. This dismissal SHALL count as a 5 STRIKE under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). The Clerk shall close the case. 6 IT IS SO ORDERED. 7 8 Dated: 1j0bbc July 8, 2011 UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 2
