TERRY JACKSON, et al.,

Defendants.
ORDER
/
15
Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel in an action brought under 42
16
17
U.S.C. § 1983. On May 21, 2012, the undersigned recommended that this action be dismissed
18
after plaintiff failed to file a pretrial statement as ordered. Dckt. No. 105. Thereafter, plaintiff
19
requested an extension of time to file his pretrial statement, explaining that he did not have
20
access to his legal property until May 24, 2012. Dckt. No. 108. However, aside from requesting
21
a settlement conference and the attendance of three witnesses at trial, plaintiff has not shown that
22
he has taken any steps toward preparing his pretrial statement, which is long overdue.
23
The court will hold the May 21, 2012 findings and recommendations in abeyance for a
24
period of fourteen days. If plaintiff fails file a pretrial statement within fourteen days, the May
25
21, 2012 findings and recommendations for dismissal will be submitted to the district judge.
