CHEREE SHIPMAN,

Plaintiff,
CASE NO. CV414-052

MARLO ENTERPRISES, INC. doing
business as Collection Concepts,
Inc.; and MARTIN REED;
Defendants.

ORDER

On March 7, 2017, the Court denied Plaintiff's motion for default

judgment because Plaintiff had not established that her debt was a
consumer debt. (Doc. 26.) Since that time, there has been no activity
in this case. Local Rule 41 states that upon "[a]ny . . . failure to

prosecute a civil action with reasonable promptness" "the assigned
Judge may, after notice to counsel of record, sua sponte, or on motion
of any party, dismiss any action for want of prosecution, with or
without prejudice." S.D. Ga. L. R. 41.
Because

this

case

has

remained

idle

for

nearly

six

months,

Plaintiff is DIRECTED to demonstrate within ten days from the date of

this order why no further action has been taken in this case. Failure
to do so will result in dismissal without prejudice of this case.
'day of August 2017,

SO ORDERED this
