CORNELIUS V. LEE, Plaintiff, v. UNKNOWN, Defendant.
ORDER OF DISMISSAL Re: Dkt. No. 5
NATHANAEL M. COUSINS, UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Plaintiff, a prisoner at High Desert State Prison in Susanville, California (“HDSP”), sent a letter to the Honorable Judge Wilken regarding a denial of medical treatment at HDSP. See Dkt. No. 1. In an effort to protect Plaintiff's rights, the Clerk of the Court opened a new matter regarding the alleged denial of medical treatment. That same day, the Clerk sent Plaintiff a notice that Plaintiff needed to file a formal complaint in order to pursue this matter. See Dkt. No. 2.
In response, Plaintiff filed a letter stating that “[t]here must be some mistake, because [Plaintiff] never filed a complaint or petition, ” and further stating that Plaintiff never intended to pursue any legal action in this District. See Dkt. No. 5. Plaintiff asked the Court to “please correct this error.” Id.
Because Plaintiff never intended to initiate a civil action in this District, the Court will grant Plaintiffs request and dismiss this matter. No filing fee will be due for this action.
The Clerk shall close the file.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
