Plaintiff,

ORDER

14

UNKNOWN F.B.I. AGENTS,

15

Defendants.

16
Plaintiff is a former county inmate proceeding pro se with a civil rights action. Plaintiff

17
18

claims that Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”) officials violated his rights to equal

19

protection under the law. On January 22, 2024, this court ordered plaintiff to show cause why

20

this case should not be dismissed for his failure to serve defendants. (ECF No. 58.) On February

21

26, 2024, this court granted plaintiff’s request for additional time to respond to the order to show

22

cause. (ECF No. 61.) After the Postal Service returned the copy of the February 26 order mailed

23

to plaintiff, on March 14 this court re-served that order on plaintiff at his current address.

24

Therefore, plaintiff’s response to the order to show cause is due April 13, 2024.
Plaintiff filed another motion for an extension of time on March 22. (ECF No. 62.)

25
26

Plaintiff states that he was robbed of his computer and legal records. Plaintiff has demonstrated

27

good cause for additional time to respond to the court’s January 22 order.
