No. C 11-0999 JSW (PR)
ORDER OF DISMISSAL

12
13

This case was opened when, on March 3, 2011, the Court received three letters

14

from Plaintiff, a prisoner of the State of California. Although the Clerk filed one of the

15

letters as a “Complaint,” it is not a complaint. They set forth narratives about inadequate

16

medical care and interference with mail, but they do not name any defendants, states any

17

causes of action, or specifies the relief being sought. Consequently, on March 24, 2011,

18

the Clerk notified Plaintiff that he must file either a complaint or an or a petition within

19

thirty days or the case would be dismissed and the file closed. No response has been

20

received. Consequently, this case is DISMISSED without prejudice.

21

The Clerk shall enter judgment and close the file.

22

IT IS SO ORDERED.
