MINUTE ORDER issued by the Courtroom Deputy for District Judge Dena M. Coggins on 8/3/2026: The court has reviewed the filings in this pro se case and in Archaga Montes v. Chestnut, et al., 1:26-cv-06047-DC-SCR. After reviewing the filings in each case, the court finds that this case (1:26-cv-05881-DC-CKD) involves the same Petitioner, alleges identical facts, and requests identical relief as Case No. 1:26-cv-06047-DC-SCR, in which Petitioner is represented by Counsel. A court may dismiss one action as duplicative of another. See M.M. v. Lafayette Sch. Dist., 681 F.3d 1082, 1091 (9th Cir. 2012). Because this action is essentially identical to the later filed case in which Petitioner has Counsel, this case (1:26-cv-05881-DC-CKD) is DISMISSED as duplicative. The Clerk of the Court is DIRECTED to CLOSE this case. (Text Only Entry) (Deputy Clerk CRS) (Entered: 08/03/2026)
