Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel in an action brought under 42
19
U.S.C. § 1983. This proceeding was referred to this court by Local Rule 302 pursuant to 28
20
U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).
On October 5, 2017, the court screened plaintiff’s amended complaint pursuant to 28
21
22
U.S.C. § 1915A. The court dismissed the amended complaint, explained the deficiencies therein
23
and granted plaintiff thirty days in which file an amended complaint to cure the deficiencies.
24
ECF No. 25. The order warned plaintiff that failure to comply would result a recommendation
25
that this action be dismissed for failure to prosecute and failure to state a claim. The time for
26
acting has passed and plaintiff has not filed an amended complaint, or otherwise responded to the
27
court’s order.

imposition by the Court of any and all sanctions authorized by statute or Rule or within the
3
inherent power of the Court.” E.D. Cal. Local Rule 110. The court may dismiss an action with or
4
without prejudice, as appropriate, if a party disobeys an order or the Local Rules. See Ferdik v.

Bonzelet, 963 F.2d 1258, 1263 (9th Cir. 1992) (district court did not abuse discretion in

1440-41 (9th Cir. 1988) (dismissal for pro se plaintiff’s failure to comply with local rule
