Jawvan E. Cook, Plaintiff v. The United States, et al., Defendants
Order Adopting Report and Recommendation, Dismissing Amended Complaint with Prejudice, and Closing Case [ECF Nos. 6, 7]
Pro se plaintiff Jawvan Cook brings this civil-rights case against the United States of America, the State of Nevada, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department ("Metro") and Doe Defendants. On February 25, 2016, I dismissed all of Cook's claims and gave him leave to amend some of them with directions for curing their deficiencies. I directed Cook to file his amended complaint by March 25, 2016. Cook did not file an amended complaint by this deadline; instead, on April 28, 2016, he filed a motion for leave to amend. Magistrate Judge Cam Ferenbach permitted Cook to belatedly file his amended complaint, screened Cook's amended complaint under the Prison Litigation Reform Act, and recommends that I dismiss all claims with prejudice. Cook has not filed an objection to the magistrate judge's report and recommendation or requested an extension to do so, and the deadline for doing so has expired.
