ORDER DISMISSING CASE FOR FAILURE TO PROSECUTE
On December 9, 2016, the Court entered an order allowing for
Plaintiff’s attorney to withdraw from this matter, and directing Plaintiff
to notify the Court within 30 days whether he has retained new counsel
or intends to proceed pro se (Dkt. 20).

failure to prosecute. Link v. Wabash R.R. Co., 370 U.S. 626, 630-32
