22
pauperis, filed the Complaint commencing this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. ' 1983
23
on October 3, 2013. (Doc. 1.) On March 19, 2015, the Court dismissed Plaintiff=s Complaint
24
for failure to state a claim, with leave to amend within thirty days. 28 U.S.C. ' 1915A; 28

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED that pursuant to 28 U.S.C. ' 1915A

assigned to the case, pursuant to the provisions of Title 28 U.S.C. ' 636(b)(l). Within thirty
