KING MWASI, Plaintiff, v. L. SULLENGER, et al., Defendants.
ORDER RE DISMISSAL RE: DKT. NO. 6
JAMES DONATO, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.
Plaintiff, a state prisoner, filed a pro se civil rights action in state court. Defendants removed the case to federal court and requested the complaint be screened. Court records indicate that plaintiff already litigated a case in this Court with nearly identical claims. See Mwasi v. Sullenger, Case No. 20-cv-2789 EJD. Plaintiff's action in Mwasi v. Sullenger, Case No. 20-cv-2789 EJD, was dismissed with prejudice as untimely. Id., Dkt. No. 27. This case is dismissed as duplicative. See Adams v. Cal. Dept. of Health Services, 487 F.3d 684, 688 (9th Cir. 2007).
Defendants' motion to screen the case (Dkt. No. 6) is GRANTED and this case is DISMISSED as duplicative. The Clerk is requested to close this case.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
