Case No.4:10CV01367 AGF

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This matter is before the Court on its own motion. The Court previously issued
two Orders (Doc. Nos. 28 & 30) requiring the Claimant, Patrice Nevins, (i)to contact the
Assistant United States Attorney (“AUSA”) assigned to this case and advise the AUSA
of a telephone number at which she can be reached and (ii) to confer in good faith with
the AUSA to file a proposed amended Case Management Order. The Court also advised
Claimant that failure to respond to or comply with those Orders would result in sanctions,
including the dismissal of her claim to the funds at issue here. (Doc. No. 30) As of the
date of this Order, Claimant has not responded to, or complied with, either of the orders
and the time to do so has expired. The Court therefore exercises its authority to dismiss
this action for failure to prosecute and/or comply with the Orders of this Court. See Fed.
R. Civ. P. 41(b).

Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the claim of Patrice Nevins to the funds at issue
here is DISMISSED with prejudice pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b).
