MICHAEL NEIL JACOBSEN, Plaintiff, v. OFFICER CURRAN, et al., Defendants.
ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS THAT DEFENDANTS MOTION TO DISMISS BE DENIED IN PART AND GRANTED IN PART
(Doc. Nos. 100, 102)
Plaintiff Michael Neil Jacobsen, who filed this action while he was a state prisoner, is proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this now-closed civil rights action 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This matter was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.
On April 1, 2019, the court dismissed this action due to plaintiff's failure to prosecute and comply with court orders, after reviewing the extensive history of plaintiff's repeated failure to comply with deadlines established by the court in this case. (Doc. No. 98.) Over eight months later, on December 3, 2019, plaintiff filed a motion seeking to set aside that order of dismissal and associated judgment, in which he attempts to again explain various reasons why he had difficulty meeting the court established deadlines. (Doc. No. 100.) On March 19, 2020, the assigned magistrate judge issued findings and recommendations, recommending that plaintiff's motion be denied. (Doc. No. 102.) Those findings and recommendations were served on plaintiff, and contained notice that objections were due within fourteen (14) days. No party has objected.
In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636 (b)(1)(C), this court has conducted a de novo review of the case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the court concludes that the findings and recommendations are supported by the record and by proper analysis. Nothing in plaintiff's December 3, 2019 motion provides a sufficient basis for setting aside the judgment entered on April 1, 2019.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
1. The findings and recommendations issued on March 19, 2020 (Doc. No. 102), are adopted in full;IT IS SO ORDERED.
2. Plaintiff's motion to set aside the order of dismissal (Doc. No. 100) is denied.
