ORDER
THIS MATTER is before the Court following Plaintiff’s failure to comply with the
Court’s order dated January 4, 2017, in which the Court allowed Plaintiff twenty days in which to
return a summons form to the Clerk for service of process on Defendant Cable. See (Doc. No.
26). The Court expressly warned Plaintiff in its Order that if he failed to respond to the Court’s
Order his claim against Defendant Cable would be dismissed without prejudice and without further
notice to Plaintiff. Plaintiff has failed to return a summons form to the Clerk for service of process
on Defendant Cable, and the time to do so has passed.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that:
(1) Plaintiff’s claim as to Defendant Cable is dismissed for Plaintiff’s failure to respond to
this Court’s order dated January 4, 2017.
(2) The Clerk of this Court is directed to terminate Cable as a named Defendant in this
action.
Signed: March 6, 2017
