ORDER DISMISSING CASE without prejudice for failure to prosecute. Signed by Chief Judge David R. Herndon on 1/4/13. (klh, )

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS
ELLYN E. TREADWAY,
Plaintiff,
v.
PREMIER CAR CONNECTION,

Defendant.

No. 12-1108-DRH
MEMORANDUM and ORDER

HERNDON, Chief Judge:
This matter comes before the Court for case management. On October 25,
2012, the Court directed Treadway to file an amended complaint on or before
November 26, 2012 because of the scant allegations in her complaint (Doc. 5).
Specifically, the Court found:
AAt this point the Court cannot determine what are Treadway=s claims
against Premier Car Connection. Her complaint is Alight@ on the
details as she simply refers to Illinois state statutes and Federal
statutes. Her lawsuit appears to be about a car.@
(Doc. 5, p.2). The Court also informed Treadway of the following: A[f]ailure to
comply with this Order shall result in the Court dismissing her case for failure to
prosecute.@ (Doc. 5, ps. 3-4).
an amended complaint.

November 26, 2012 passed without Treadway filing

Therefore, on December 6, 2012, the Court issued

another Order advising Treadway of the ramifications of the failure to prosecute
this case by failing to follow Court Orders and allowed Treadway up to and
including December 26, 2012 to file an amended complaint (Doc. 6).
As of this date, Treadway has neither filed an amended complaint nor filed
an extension of time. Thus, the Court finds that dismissal of Treadway’s case for
failure to prosecute is proper.
Accordingly,

the

Court

DISMISSES

without

prejudice

Treadway’s

complaint for failure to prosecute. The Court will close the file.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
