Roedel v. Craighead County Detention Center

Filing 5

ORDER dismissing Plaintiff's complaint without prejudice for failure to monitor & prosecute this action. Signed by Judge D. P. Marshall Jr. on 7/9/2012. (jct)

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS
JONESBORO DIVISION

PLAINTIFF

ADAM RAY ROEDEL

v.

No. 3:12-cv-51-DPM

CRAIGHEAD COUNTY DETENTION CENTER

DEFENDANT

ORDER
The Court issued an Order in May warning Roedel that his case would
be dismissed unless he paid the filing fee or filed a motion to proceed in forma
pauperis. Document No. 2. That Order was mailed to Roedel but returned by

the postal service. Document No.4. More than 30 days have passed with no
word from Roedel. Local Rule 5.5(c)(2) provides that a prose litigant must
"promptly notify the Clerk and the other parties to the proceedings of any
change in his or her address, ... monitor the progress of the case, and ...
prosecute or defend the action diligently." Because Roedel has failed to do so,
the Court dismisses his complaint without prejudice.
So Ordered.
D.P. Marshall Jr.
