18 19 20 On August 22, 2023, I directed petitioner to either pay the required filing fee or submit a 21 complete application to proceed in forma pauperis. ECF No. 3. I granted him thirty days to 22 comply. Id. When petitioner did not, I ordered him, on October 13, 2023, to show cause within 23 twenty-one days why this action should not be dismissed for his failure to pay the filing fee, 24 failure to prosecute, and failure to comply with court orders. ECF No. 4. I notified him that if he 25 wished to continue with this action he must, within twenty-one days, either pay the required filing 26 fee or submit a complete application to proceed in forma pauperis. Id. I also warned him that 27 failure to comply with that order would result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed. 28 1 | 7d. 2 The deadline has passed, and petitioner has neither complied with nor responded to the 3 | October 13 order. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that the Clerk of Court shall randomly 4 | assign a United States District Judge to this case. 5 Further, it is hereby RECOMMENDED that: 6 1.
