Mr. Martínez is warned that, even if the Court dismisses the instant action without
prejudice for failure to comply with this order, the dismissal may act as a dismissal with
prejudice if he seeks to refile in this Court because the ninety-day limitations period for
filing a Title VII action may have run on his claims. See 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(f)(1) (A
claimant has ninety days to file an action in the district court after receiving a notice of
right to sue from the EEOC).
Accordingly, it is
ORDERED that Plaintiff, Gabe Martínez, cure the deficiencies designated above
within thirty (30) days from the date of this order. Any papers that Plaintiff files in
response to this order must include the civil action number on this order. It is
FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff shall obtain the Court-approved Title VII
Complaint form, along with the applicable instructions, at www.cod.uscourts.gov, and
use that form in curing the designated deficiencies. It is
FURTHER ORDERED that, if Plaintiff fails to cure the designated deficiencies
within thirty (30) days from the date of this order, the Title VII Complaint and the
2
action may be dismissed without further notice. The dismissal shall be without
prejudice.
