ORDER
Plaintiff Gerald Ponder filed this § 1983 action on November 13, 2013. The Court, after
Plaintiff had failed to take action in his case, learned that Plaintiff had passed away on June 13, 2014.
On March 19, 2015, the Court directed the Clerk to send an Order to Plaintiff’s address of record so
as to advise any potential successor or representative that, should they wish to proceed with the case,
the successor or representative should file a motion for substitution within ninety days. (ECF No.
20). Since the Court entered that Order, 180 days have passed and no successor or representative
has filed any motion for substitution. Because no motion for substitution was filed within the time
prescribed by the rules, this case is hereby DISMISSED in accordance with Federal Rule of Civil
Procedure 25(a).
IT IS SO ORDERED, this 15th day of September, 2015.
