case is DISMISSED without prejudice for Plaintiff’s failures to comply with the
order of the court and to prosecute this action.

counsel.” 28 U.S.C. § 1654. “The right to appear pro se . . . is limited to parties conducting ‘their
own cases,’ and does not extend to non-attorney parties representing the interests of others.”
