Defendants.

ORDER
/

16

By order filed on December 13, 2011, the complaint was dismissed and plaintiff

17

was granted leave to amend within twenty-eight days. Plaintiff has subsequently filed a

18

document wherein he indicates he has been having problems with respect to obtaining grievance

19

responses and asking whether he should wait for responses or file an amended complaint. The

20

court will liberally construe the belated request as one for an extension of time to file an amended

21

complaint and will grant it in this instance. Failure to file an amended complaint will result in

22

dismissal of this action.

23

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

24

1. Plaintiff’s January 26, 2012 motion for an extension of time (Docket No. 10) is

25

granted;
