Case No. 2:12-cv-00121-KJD-CWH
ORDER

This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff’s Motion for Reconsideration (#6), filed August
27, 2012.
By way of the motion, Plaintiff requests that the Court order service of his complaint

16

pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(c)(3). As a result of the Court’s screening order (#4), the complaint

17

in this matter has been dismissed without prejudice. As such, there is no operative complaint in

18

this matter. Plaintiff has until Friday, September 21, 2012, to file an amended complaint that

19

adequately addresses the deficiencies identified by the Court in its screening order. Failure to do so

20

will result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed. Once an amended complaint has

21

been filed it will be screened pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 1915(e)(2) and, if the amended complaint

22

alleges a viable cause of action, then the Court will order service.

23

Based on the foregoing and good cause appearing therefore,

24

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motion for Reconsideration (#6) is denied.

25

DATED this 28th day of August, 2012.
