DWIGHT HARRIS, Plaintiff, v. KING COUNTY JAIL, et al., Defendants.
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
Theresa L. Fricke United States Magistrate Judge
On March 7, 2024, plaintiff filed a proposed civil rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. 1983 and an application to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP). Dkts. 1, 1-1, 7. On May 9, 2024, the Court ordered plaintiff to show cause why their complaint should not be dismissed for failure to state a claim, or file an amended complaint. Dkt. 8. Plaintiff had until June 10, 2024, to meet the Court's deadline. Id.
Plaintiff has not responded to the Court's order to show cause to date. Accordingly, the undersigned recommends that the Court DENY plaintiff's IFP application (Dkt. 7) and dismiss the action without prejudice for failure to prosecute.
Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) and Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b), the parties shall have fourteen (14) days from service of this report to file written objections. See also Fed. R. Civ. P. 6. Failure to file objections will result in a waiver of those objections for purposes of de novo review by the district judge, see 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C), and can result in a waiver of those objections for purposes of appeal. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 142 (1985); Miranda v. Anchondo, 684 F.3d 844, 848 (9th Cir. 2012) (citations omitted). Accommodating the time limit imposed by Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b), the Clerk is directed to set the matter for consideration on July 26, 2024, as noted in the caption.
