CIVIL ACTION NO. 1:14-CV-171-GNS

U.S. MARSHAL SERVICE et al.

DEFENDANTS

MEMORANDUM OPINION
By Memorandum Opinion and Order entered May 1, 2015, this Court ordered Plaintiff
Corey Mize to submit an amended 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint form within 30 days. Plaintiff
was warned that failure to comply would result in dismissal of his case. Plaintiff did not comply.
By Order entered July 8, 2015, Plaintiff was instructed that he had an additional 21 days
in which to file his amended complaint on the appropriate form. He was again warned that
failure to comply would result in dismissal of his case.
The allotted time has passed, and Plaintiff has again failed to submit the amended
complaint form. Courts have an inherent power “acting on their own initiative, to clear their
calendars of cases that have remained dormant because of the inaction or dilatoriness of the
parties seeking relief.” Link v. Wabash R.R. Co., 370 U.S. 626, 630 (1962). Therefore, by
separate Order, the Court will dismiss the instant action. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b) (governing
involuntary dismissal).
