No. 2:16-cv-2142 CKD P

v.

ORDER AND

KOREY HONEA, et al.,

15

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Defendants.

16
Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a civil rights action pursuant to 42

17
18

U.S.C. § 1983. On April 5, 2018, defendant Thompson filed a motion for summary judgment.

19

On July 3, 2018, plaintiff was ordered to file an opposition or a statement of non-opposition to the

20

pending motion within thirty days. In the same order, plaintiff was informed that failure to file an

21

opposition would result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed pursuant to Fed. R.

22

Civ. P. 41(b). The thirty day period has now expired, and plaintiff has not responded to the

23

court’s order.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court assign a district

24
25

court judge to this case; and
IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED that this action be dismissed pursuant to Federal Rule

26
27

of Civil Procedure 41(b).
