No. 2:17-cv-01299 KJM AC PS

v.

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

GOOGLE CORPORATION, et al.,

15

Defendants.

16
17
Plaintiff is proceeding in this action pro se. The action was accordingly referred to the

18
19

undersigned for pretrial matters by E.D. Cal. R. (“Local Rule”) 302(c)(21). On August 15, 2017,

20

the court dismissed the complaint, and granted plaintiff 30 days to file an amended complaint.

21

ECF No. 3. Plaintiff was cautioned that failure to do so could lead to a recommendation that the

22

action be dismissed. Plaintiff has not responded to the court’s orders, nor taken any action to

23

prosecute this case.
Moreover, the order was served on plaintiff’s address of record and returned by the postal

24
25

service on two different occasions. It appears that plaintiff has failed to comply with the court’s

26

Local Rules, which require that a party appearing in propria persona inform the court of any

27

address change within sixty-three days. Local Rule 183(b). More than sixty-three days have

28

////
1

1

passed since the court order was returned by the postal service and plaintiff has failed to notify

2

the Court of a current address.

3

Therefore, IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED that this action be dismissed, without

4

prejudice, for lack of prosecution and for failure to comply with the court’s order. See Fed. R.

5

Civ. P. 41(b); Local Rule 110, 183(b).

6

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

7

assigned to this case, pursuant to the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l). Within twenty-one

8

(21) days after being served with these findings and recommendations, plaintiff may file written

9

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

10

Findings and Recommendations.” Local Rule 304(d). Plaintiff is advised that failure to file

11

objections within the specified time may waive the right to appeal the District Court’s order.
