ORDER ACCEPTING FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS OF UNITE STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE [DOCKET NOS. 45, 50]
HONORABLE ANDRE BIROTTE JR. UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
The Court has conducted the review required by 28 U.S.C. § 636 and accepts the findings, conclusions and recommendation of the Magistrate Judge reflected in the May 17, 2021 Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge (“Report and Recommendation”).
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED:
1. Plaintiff's Request for Judicial Notice is denied;
2. Defendants' Request for Judicial Notice is granted and Defendants' Motion to Dismiss is granted to the extent it seeks dismissal of the First Amended Complaint for failure to state a claim;
4. the First Amended Complaint is dismissed with leave to amend;
5. Within fourteen (14) days of the date of this Order, plaintiff shall do one of the following:
(a) file a Second Amended Complaint which cures the pleading defects identified in the Report and Recommendation;
Any Second Amended Complaint must: (a) be labeled “Second Amended Complaint”; (b) be complete in and of itself and not refer in any manner to the original or First Amended Complainti.e., it must include all claims on which plaintiff seeks to proceed (Local Rule 15-2); (c) contain a “short and plain” statement of each claim for relief “showing that [plaintiff] is entitled to relief” (Fed. R. Civ. P. 8(a)); (d) make each allegation “simple, concise and direct” and contain factual allegations in clear short, concise, numbered paragraphs, each “limited as far as practicable to a single set of circumstances” (Fed. R. Civ. P. 8(d)(1), 10(b)); (e) set forth clearly the sequence of events giving rise to the claim(s) for relief; (f) reflect which claims are brought against which defendant(s) in which capacity and allege specifically what each defendant did and how that individual's conduct specifically violated plaintiff's civil rights; and (g) not add defendants or claims that are not related to the claims asserted in the original or First Amended Complaint.
(b) file a Notice of Dismissal which will result in the voluntary dismissal of this action without prejudice; or
(c) file a Notice of Intent to Stand on First Amended Complaint, indicating plaintiff's intent to stand on the First Amended Complaint despite the pleading defects described in the Report and Recommendation, which may result in the dismissal of this action in its entirety based upon such defects.
Plaintiff is cautioned that his failure timely to file a Second Amended Complaint, a Notice of Dismissal, or a Notice of Intent to Stand on First Amended Complaint may be deemed his admission that amendment is futile, and may result in the dismissal of this action with or without prejudice on the grounds set forth in the Report and Recommendation, on the ground that amendment is futile, for failure diligently to prosecute and/or for failure to comply with this Order.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk serve copies of this Order on plaintiff and counsel for defendants.
IT IS SO ORDERED
