Defendant

11

This employment-discrimination action arises out of pro-se plaintiff Daniel Kirkland’s

12

application to work as a poker dealer at Bally’s Hotel and Casino.1 I issued an order to show cause

13

why this action should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute on September 9, 2014, that required

14

a response from Kirkland by September 30, 2014.2 Kirkland was cautioned that, if he failed to

15

timely or adequately respond to this order, his action would be dismissed without further notice.3 He

16

failed to file any response whatsoever. Nor has he otherwise prosecuted this case in any way.

17

Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that this case is DISMISSED.

18

The Clerk of Court is instructed to close this case.

19

DATED October 29, 2014.
