IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF KANSAS

MAURICE SABBA SCOTT,
Plaintiff,
v.

CASE NO. 17-3064-SAC-DJW

SALINE COUNTY SHERIFF’S DEPARTMENT, et al.,
Defendants.

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
By an order entered on April 25, 2017, U.S. Magistrate Judge Waxse
directed plaintiff to submit an initial partial filing fee and to show
cause why this matter should not be dismissed for failure to state
a claim for relief. On May 8, 2017, the order mailed to plaintiff was
returned as undeliverable. It appears plaintiff has failed to provide
the clerk of the court with a current address, as required by D. Kan.
R. 5.1(c)(3).
Under D. Kan. R. 41.1, “At any time, the court may issue an order
to show cause why a case should not be dismissed for lack of
prosecution. If good cause is not shown within the time prescribed
by the show cause order, the court may enter an order of dismissal.
The dismissal will be with prejudice unless the court otherwise
specifies.”
IT IS, THEREFORE, BY THE COURT ORDERED plaintiff is granted to
and including May 24, 2017, to show cause why this matter should not
be dismissed due to his failure to diligently prosecute this action.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
DATED:

This 9th day of May, 2017, at Topeka, Kansas.
