Accordingly, the court ordered petitioner to file a completed in forma pauperis 22 application or pay the filing fee within 30 days. That order warned petitioner that failure to do so 23 may result in this action being dismissed. The 30-day period has expired and petitioner has not filed a completed in forma pauperis 24 25 affidavit, paid the filing fee or otherwise responded to the court’s order. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that the Clerk is directed to randomly assign a 26 27 United States District Judge to this case. 28 ///// 1 Dockets.Justia.com 1 Further, it is RECOMMENDED that this action be dismissed. 2 These findings and recommendations are submitted to the United States District Judge 3 assigned to the case, pursuant to the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l).
