Opinion
No. C 11-5548 PJH (PR)
01-10-2012
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
This case was opened when plaintiff wrote a letter to Judge Henderson of this court regarding administrative appeals of medical issues. In an effort to protect his rights, it was filed as a new civil rights case. Plaintiff was informed that he had not filed a complaint and was given thirty days to do so. He also was sent a notice that he had not paid the filing fee or applied for leave to proceed in forma pauperis ("IFP"); again, he was allowed thirty days to either pay the fee or file the application. A copy of the court's form for applications to proceed IFP was provided with the notice, along with a return envelope.
Plaintiff has written to the court saying that he did not intend to file a new case, and did not intend to do anything other than inform Judge Henderson by letter about problems with administrative appeals in his institution. This case is therefore DISMISSED without prejudice as opened in error. No fee is due. The clerk shall close the file.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
