Civil No. 7:13-CV-007-O-BL

ORDER
This is a civil rights action filed by an inmate confined in the Woodman State Jail in
Gatesville, Texas. Plaintiff claims that she was denied medical care then forced to undergo a
surgical procedure performed by a nurse without Plaintiff’s consent. See Complaint.
On February 8, 2013, the Court entered a notice of deficiency and order directing Plaintiff
to file an amended complaint bearing her signature within twenty days. Plaintiff failed to comply
with the Court’s order and, on March 7, 2013, a recommendation for dismissal was entered by the
United States Magistrate Judge. The recommendation for dismissal was contingent upon Plaintiff
failing to file an amended complaint within fourteen days. On March 22, 2013, Plaintiff filed an
amended complaint bearing her signature thereby curing the deficiency as previously ordered.
For the foregoing reasons, the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate
Judge is accepted and this action is referred back the Magistrate Judge for further proceedings.
SO ORDERED this 26th day of March, 2013.
