Gibson v. Bank of America, N.A.

ORDER DISMISSING CASE without prejudice. Signed by District Judge George Caram Steeh (MBea)

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION
JOANNE GIBSON,
Plaintiff,
Case No. 12-11032
v.
HON. GEORGE CARAM STEEH
BANK OF AMERICA, N.A.,
Defendant.
___________________________________/
ORDER DISMISSING CASE
On July 10, 2012, the court issued an order to show cause as to why this case
should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute. On July 17, 2012, plaintiff filed a
response to the show cause. In the response, plaintiff requests “time to amend the
complaint and serve defendants for good cause.” Plaintiff indicates an eviction case in
state court has distracted her from pursuing this case. While she requests “time to
amend the complaint and serve all parties,” she fails to indicate how or why she
requests amendment of the complaint. This action names only one defendant; plaintiff
refers to “defendants” and serving “all parties” but fails to identify additional parties she
wishes to add as defendants. Plaintiff alternatively asks this court to grant a voluntary
dismissal without prejudice. The court GRANTS plaintiff’s request to DISMISS the case
without prejudice.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: July 25, 2012
