On September 20, 2011, this court issued an order to show cause why this case should not be
dismissed for failure to prosecute, indicating that Jacqueline Melcher had commenced the action on
March 18, 2011 but had not yet designated the record on appeal. See Dkt. No. 8. On October 21,
2011, the court ordered Ms. Melcher to file an adequate designation of the record by November 4,
2011 or face dismissal of her appeal. On October 29, 2011, Ms. Melcher asked the court to extend
that deadline to December 1, 2011 because of other deadlines set by the bankruptcy court. The court
extended the deadline to December 1, 2011, but stated that it would not entertain any further
requests for extensions or additional time by Ms. Melcher. As more than nine months have passed
and Ms. Melcher has still failed to designate a record, the court dismisses this action for failure to
prosecute. The clerk shall close the file.
