Demark v. Powell et al

Filing 29

OPINION re: 27 LETTER MOTION to Stay and FRCP 41(b) dismissal: Before this court is a motion to dismiss plaintiff's complaint for failure to prosecute pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). Defendant asserts that plaintiff Karen Va n Demark's failure to respond to discovery requests and general lack of responsiveness warrants the court's dismissal of her complaint. For the reasons given above, defendant's motion to dismiss under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4 1(b) is conditionally granted. Plaintiff is ordered to file a written explanation of her failures to respond to defendant's discovery requests and deposition within thirty (30) days of the date of this Opinion. If plaintiff fails to respond within 30 days, plaintiff's case will be dismissed with prejudice for failure to prosecute pursuant to Rule 41(b). This resolves Docket Number 27 in this case. (Signed by Judge Thomas P. Griesa on 9/25/2017) (jwh)
