Plaintiff Cornelius V. Lee (“Plaintiff’) is a prisoner in the custody of the California
Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. Plaintiff is proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis
in this civil action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On July 10, 2012, and August 27, 2012, the Court
issued an order requiring Plaintiff to respond as to whether he consented to jurisdiction by a United
States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c). As of the date of this order, Plaintiff has not
responded. The Court may issue an order to show cause when a party fails to respond to a Consent
to Assignment or Request for Reassignment form. L.R. App. A(k)(2).
Accordingly, it is HEREBY ORDERED that:
1. Plaintiff is to show cause within thirty (30) days why this action should not be dismissed for
failure to obey a court order;
2. The Clerk of the Court is directed to send Plaintiff a third Consent to Assignment or Request
for Reassignment form; and
3. If Plaintiff fails to show cause or otherwise timely respond, the Court will dismiss this action
