UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS
KEENON J. FARR,
Petitioner,
v.

Civil No. 17-cv-872-JPG

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Criminal Nos. 15-cr-40055-JPG-04

Respondent.
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This matter comes before the Court on the Court’s August 23, 2017, order (Doc. 2) for
petitioner Keenon J. Farr to show cause why the Court should not dismiss his motion to vacate, set
aside or correct her sentence pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (Doc. 1) as untimely. The Court gave
Farr up to and including September 8, 2017, to respond, but he has failed to do so. In the absence
of any objection from Farr and for the reasons in the show cause order, the Court finds Farr’s
§ 2255 motion is untimely under § 2255(f). The Court therefore DISMISSES the petition (Doc.
1) and DIRECTS the Clerk of Court to enter judgment accordingly.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
DATED: October 18, 2017
