Vanisa Anderson, et al. v. Bayer Corporation, et
al. No. 3:11-cv-12047-DRH-PMF
ORDER GRANTING DISMISSAL WITHOUT PREJUDICE
HERNDON, District Judge:
This matter is before the Court on the Bayer Defendants’ motion for an
order dismissing plaintiff Vanisa Anderson’s claims without prejudice for failure
to file an appearance as required by this Court’s Order and Local Rule 83.1(g)(2).
The plaintiff has not responded to the instant motion.
On October 20, 2014, this Court granted plaintiff’s counsel’s motion to
withdraw (Doc. 11). The order granting leave to withdraw expressly provided that
if the subject plaintiff (or her new counsel) failed to file a timely supplementary
entry of appearance, the action would be subject to dismissal without prejudice
under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b) for failure to prosecute or to comply
with the orders of this Court. To date, and in violation of this Court’s orders and
Local Rule 83.1(g), the plaintiff has not filed a supplementary appearance.

The plaintiff must comply with the Local Rules and this Court’s orders.
Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b). Accordingly, for the reasons stated herein, the claims of the
plaintiff are hereby dismissed without prejudice.
Further, as all other plaintiffs have previously been dismissed, the above
captioned case is dismissed in its entirety.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Signed this 3rd day of March, 2015.
