ORDER OF DISMISSAL
THIS COURT entered an Order to Show Cause (Doc. 35) on October 19, 2016, that
provided Plaintiff fourteen (14) days in which to show cause why this action should not be
dismissed as to Defendant Florida Department of Children and Families due to lack of
service. Plaintiff failed to file a timely response or effectuate service. On October 19, 2016,
this Court also issued an Order (Doc. 36) granting Defendant Amy Tooley’s motion to
dismiss and giving Plaintiff fourteen (14) days to file and amended complaint. Plaintiff did
not file an amended complaint. The Court, therefore, concludes this action should be
dismissed as to DCF and the case should be closed.

This cause is DISMISSED.

2.

All pending motions are DENIED as moot.
