Plaintiff,
v.

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

VIRTU INVESTMENTS, LLC,

14

Defendant.

15
16

On October 4, 2017, the court dismissed plaintiff’s complaint with leave to amend.1 The

17

order explained the complaint’s deficiencies, gave plaintiff thirty days to file an amended

18

complaint correcting those deficiencies, and warned plaintiff that failure to file an amended

19

complaint would result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed. ECF No. 4. The court

20

subsequently granted in part plaintiff’s request for an extension of time and directed plaintiff to

21

file an amended complaint by December 29, 2017. ECF No. 6.

22

The deadline has passed and plaintiff has not filed an amended complaint.

23

Accordingly, it is hereby RECOMMENDED that this action be dismissed, and that the

24

Clerk be directed to close this case. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b); E.D. Cal. L.R. 110.

25

These findings and recommendations are submitted to the United States District Judge

26

assigned to the case, pursuant to the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l). Within fourteen days

after being served with these findings and recommendations, plaintiff may file written objections

2

with the court. Such a document should be captioned “Objections to Magistrate Judge’s Findings

3

and Recommendations.” Failure to file objections within the specified time may waive the right

4

to appeal the District Court’s order. Turner v. Duncan, 158 F.3d 449, 455 (9th Cir. 1998);
