Plaintiff,
13
v.
14
D. FLYNN, et al.,
15
FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Defendants.
16
17
Plaintiff is a county inmate proceeding without counsel. To properly commence a civil
18
action, plaintiff must file a signed complaint. Fed. R. Civ. P. 3. In addition, plaintiff must pay the
19
$400 filing fee required by 28 U.S.C. § 1914(a) or request leave to proceed in forma pauperis and
20
submit the affidavit and trust account statement required by 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a).
21
Despite two court orders, plaintiff has yet to submit a proper complaint and either pay the
22
filing fee or submit a proper application for proceeding in forma pauperis. See ECF Nos. 3, 20.
23
On August 15, 2013, the court ordered plaintiff to file the required documents within 30 days.
24
The 30-day period has expired and plaintiff has not paid the filing fee, filed a completed in forma
25
pauperis application, or filed a proper complaint.
26
Accordingly, it is hereby recommended that this action be DISMISSED.
27
These findings and recommendations are submitted to the United States District Judge
28
assigned to the case, pursuant to the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l). Within fourteen days
1
1
after being served with these findings and recommendations, any party may file written
2
objections with the court and serve a copy on all parties. Such a document should be captioned
3
“Objections to Magistrate Judge’s Findings and Recommendations.” Any response to the
4
objections shall be served and filed within fourteen days after service of the objections. The
5
parties are advised that failure to file objections within the specified time may waive the right to
6
appeal the District Court’s order. Martinez v. Ylst, 951 F.2d 1153 (9th Cir. 1991).
