Defendants.

ORDER
/

16

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel, with a civil rights action

17

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On June 6, 2011, plaintiff consented to the jurisdiction of the

18

undersigned.

19

Pursuant to this court’s screening of plaintiff’s original complaint pursuant to 28

20

U.S.C. § 1915A(a), the court found that the complaint may state cognizable claims against

21

defendants Hasty and Rayner, but did not state a claim against defendant Hubbard. (Dkt. No. 6.)

22

The court gave plaintiff the option of proceeding on his original complaint or filing an amended

23

complaint that added a cognizable claim against defendant Smith. Plaintiff chose to proceed on

24

his original complaint against defendants Hasty and Rayner, effectively choosing to terminate

25

this action against defendant Hubbard.
