v.
FOWLER, et al.,
Defendants.
/

ORDER OF DISMISSAL
On September 16, 2013, pro se plaintiff Marlin Manley filed this 42 U.S.C. § 1983
civil rights action arising out of his claim, among other things, that defendant Fowler failed
to protect him from his cell mate while he was incarcerated, and retaliated against him
when he told Fowler that he planned to file a grievance against him. Plaintiff filed three
other civil rights cases in September, 2013, and those unrelated cases have been assigned
to other judges in this district. On December 13, 2013, the court ordered plaintiff to show
cause why this case should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute pursuant to Local
Rule 41.2. Nearly four months have passed, and plaintiff still has failed to respond.
Accordingly, this case is DISMISSED for failure to prosecute.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: April 7, 2014
