Case No. 1:11-CV-00103 JTK
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
The Court issued a scheduling order on April 24, 2012, which required Plaintiff to file his
brief by June 5, 2012. (Doc. No. 10). Plaintiff subsequently filed a motion for extension of time
on June 4, 2012. (Doc. No. 11). The Court granted his motion, and the deadline for his brief was
extended to July 4, 2012. Plaintiff has not filed anything with the Court since his request for an
extension was granted.
As explained in the scheduling order, Plaintiff’s failure to file a timely brief is grounds
for dismissal. Given the amount of time that has passed, the Court believes that dismissal is
warranted.
Accordingly, Plaintiff’s action is dismissed without prejudice for want of
prosecution.
SO ORDERED this 5th day of October, 2012.
