Carr v. Social Security Administration

Filing 3

ORDER DISMISSING CASE because plaintiff has filed an identical complaint in case number 2:11-cv-90. The plaintiff should pursue relief in that case, the first-filed case. Signed by Judge Brian S. Miller on 3/21/12. (kpr)

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS
EASTERN DIVISION
WILLIE CARR, JR.
v.

PLAINTIFF
CASE NO. 2:12CV00046 BSM

MICHAEL J. ASTRUE,
COMMISSIONER OF THE
SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION

DEFENDANT

ORDER
The complaint filed herein on March 15, 2012 [Doc. No. 2] is hereby dismissed.
Plaintiff filed an identical complaint on May 12, 2011, bearing case number 2:11-CV-90, and
assigned to the Honorable James M. Moody. The only distinction in the complaints is an
obvious typographical error found in paragraph one of the original complaint. Because this
case is merely a duplicate of case number 2:11-CV-90, it is appropriate for this case to be
dismissed and for plaintiff to pursue relief in case number 2:11-CV-90, the first-filed case.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 21st day of March 2012.
