Civil Action No. 17-11715-LTS

ORDER
March 26, 2018
SOROKIN, D.J.
In a memorandum and order dated February 12, 2018 (Dkt. No. 5), the Court ordered pro
se plaintiff Timothy Taylor to file an amended complaint. The Court had concluded that the
original complaint failed to state a claim upon which relief may be granted because Taylor had
failed to identify clearly the alleged misconduct of each named defendant and to allege that the
criminal conviction allegedly arising from the defendants’ misconduct had been invalidated. The
Court warned Taylor that failure to file an amended complaint within 35 days could result in
dismissal of the action. The deadline for complying with the Court’s order expired on March 19,
2018, and Taylor has not filed an amended complaint or sought additional time to do so.
Accordingly, the case is DISMISSED for failure to state a claim upon which relief may
be granted, see 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii), and for failure to respond to the Court’s February
12, 2018 order.
SO ORDERED.
