RECOMMENDATIONS

SUPERIOR COURTS OF CALIFORNIA, et al., 15 Respondents. 16 On October 2, 2024, I screened the petition and found that it failed to state a claim. I granted petitioner thirty days to file an amended petition. ECF No. 14. Petitioner failed to timely file an amended petition. Therefore, on November 27, 2024, I ordered petitioner to show cause why this action should not be dismissed for his failure to state a claim, failure to prosecute, and failure to comply with court orders. ECF No. 15. Petitioner has not responded to the order to show cause, and the time to do so has passed. Accordingly, dismissal of the action is warranted. The court has the inherent power to control its docket and may, in the exercise of that power, impose sanctions where appropriate, including dismissal. Bautista v.
