MEMORANDUM
AND ORDER

This matter is before the court on its own motion. On June 25, 2013, the court
conducted an initial review of Plaintiff’s Complaint. (Filing No. 10.) The court
determined that, “[e]ven when liberally construed, Plaintiff’s Complaint raises no
claims and makes no allegations against Defendants.” (Id. at CM/ECF p. 2.) On the
court’s own motion, it gave Plaintiff 30 days in which to amend his Complaint to
clearly state a claim upon which relief may be granted. (Id. at CM/ECF p. 3.) On July
24, 2013, on Plaintiff’s motion, the court extended the time in which Plaintiff had to
file an amended complaint.
Plaintiff filed an Amended Complaint on August 21, 2013. (Filing No. 13.)
Even when liberally construed, Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint raises no claims and
makes no allegations against Defendants. For this reason, and for the reasons set forth
in the court’s June 25, 2013, Memorandum and Order, this matter is dismissed.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that:
1.
This matter is dismissed without prejudice for failure to state a claim
upon which relief may be granted.

2.
A separate judgment will be entered in accordance with this
Memorandum and Order.
DATED this 11th day of October, 2013.
BY THE COURT:
