KEVIN JONES,

Plaintiff,

No. 2:17-cv-2190-JAM-EFB P

v.

ORDER

FOX, et al.,

14

Defendants.

15
Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel in an action brought under 42

16
17

U.S.C. § 1983. On June 14, 2018, the court issued findings and recommendations, which

18

recommended dismissal of this action after plaintiff failed to file an amended complaint in

19

accordance with the court’s screening order. ECF No. 39.
Plaintiff has since filed an “extension of time and a copy of opposing defendant’s motion

20
21

to dismiss . . . .” ECF No. 41. Plaintiff’s requested relief is unclear. To the extent plaintiff seeks

22

a copy of a motion to dismiss, the request is denied, as no defendants have appeared and no

23

motions to dismiss filed. In an abundance of caution, the court will direct the Clerk to re-serve

24

plaintiff with a copy of the court’s May 3, 2018 screening order dismissing plaintiff’s complaint

25

with leave to amend (ECF No. 32) and will grant plaintiff a 30-day extension of time to file

26

objections to the June 14, 2018 findings and recommendations.
