ORDER GRANTING EXTENSION OF
TIME FOR PLAINTIFF TO FILE
PROOFS OF SERVICE

17
Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, filed the instant civil rights complaint
18
pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On December 21, 2011, the Court reviewed Plaintiff’s complaint
19
and determined that he alleged cognizable claims for relief. The Court further recognized that,
20
because Plaintiff had paid the filing fee, he could not rely upon the United States Marshal for
21
service upon the named Defendants. Plaintiff was directed to provide the Court with proofs of
22
service of the summons and complaint on all the Defendants, or show good cause why they
23
should not be dismissed.
24
On January 30, 2012, Plaintiff filed with the Court a motion for extension of time to file
25
proofs of service. Plaintiff’s motion is GRANTED. Plaintiff shall provide his proofs of service
26
no later than thirty days from the filing date of this order. Failure to comply or demonstrate
27
good cause within thirty days from the filing date of this order, will result in dismissal of
