Defendants.

CIVIL ACTION NO. 5:14-CV-87 (MTT)

ORDER
United States Magistrate Judge Stephen Hyles recommends that Plaintiff William
Powell’s complaint be dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute and comply
with the Court’s orders. Doc. 88. On February 26, 2018, the Court adopted the
Recommendation to grant Defendant Stephen Bostic’s motion for summary judgment.
Doc. 85. Following that, the Magistrate Judge ordered the Plaintiff to provide the Court
with “current and correct addresses” for the remaining Defendants and “more detail so
as to identify the unidentified Defendants” so that they could be properly served. Doc.
86 at 1-2. The Plaintiff never responded to that order. On April 2, 2018, the Magistrate
Judge entered an order directing the Plaintiff to respond and show cause, within 21
days, as to why his lawsuit should not be dismissed for his failure to comply with the
Court’s previous order. Doc. 87. Again, the Plaintiff did not respond. The Plaintiff also
has not objected to the Recommendation.

The Court has reviewed the Recommendation and accepts the findings,
conclusions, and recommendations of the Magistrate Judge. The Recommendation
(Doc. 88) is ADOPTED and made the Order of the Court. Accordingly, the Plaintiff’s
complaint is DISMISSED without prejudice.
SO ORDERED, this 23rd day of May, 2018.
