ORDER dismissing case Signed by Judge Roy B. Dalton, Jr. on 5/16/2017. (VMF)

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
ORLANDO DIVISION
DOROTHY FISHER,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No. 6:17-cv-574-Orl-37TBS

GREGORY WHITLOCK; and
AUTHORHOUSE, LLC,
Defendants.
_____________________________________
ORDER
Pro se Plaintiff Dorothy Fisher has twice filed a complaint that fails to properly
allege the Court’s subject matter jurisdiction over this action concerning Defendants’
alleged misappropriation of royalties owed to Plaintiff. (See Docs. 1, 10 (“First Amended
Complaint”).) On April 28, 2017, the Court: (1) dismissed the First Amended Complaint;
(2) permitted Plaintiff to file a second amended complaint (“SAC”) on or before
May 15, 2017 (“Filing Deadline”); (3) encouraged Plaintiff to take advantage of the free,
in-person legal information clinic for pro se litigants; and (4) cautioned Plaintiff that
failure to file a SAC by the Filing Deadline would result in dismissal and closure of this
case. (See Doc. 11.) The Filing Deadline has now passed, and Plaintiff has failed to file a
SAC. Hence the Court finds that this action is due to be dismissed with prejudice.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED AND ADJUDGED as follows:
1.

This action is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.

2.

The Clerk is DIRECTED to close the file.
