Accordingly, on May 14, 2021, I 21 ordered him to show cause within twenty-one days why this action should not be dismissed for 22 failure to prosecute and failure to state a claim. ECF No. 12. I notified plaintiff that if he wished 23 to continue with this lawsuit, he would need to file an amended complaint. I also warned him that 24 failure to comply with the May 14 order would result in a recommendation that this action be 25 dismissed. 26 The deadline has passed, and plaintiff has neither filed an amended complaint nor 27 otherwise responded to the May 14, 2021 order.
