ORDER OF DISMISSAL WITH PREJUDICE
Horry County,
Defendant.
This matter is before the court pursuant to Defendant Horry County’s Notice Of
Motion And Motion To Dismiss [Dkt. No. 18]. On October 11, 2012, this court granted
Attorney Willard Hanna’s Motion To Be Relieved As Counsel [Dkt. No. 12] for Plaintiff.
The court also ruled that it would dismiss Plaintiff’s lawsuit pursuant to FED. R. CIV. P.
41 for failure to prosecute if Plaintiff did not retain substitute counsel by November 16,
2012. To date no attorney has entered an appearance for Plaintiff. Therefore, Plaintiff’s
lawsuit is dismissed with prejudice. See FED. R. CIV. P. 41(b) (“Unless the dismissal
order states otherwise, a dismissal under this subdivision (b)…operates as an adjudication
on the merits.”); Singletary v. S.C. Dept. of Educ., Civil Action No. 3:11–cv–01449–
MBS–BHH, 2012 WL 1790307, *1 (D.S.C. May 14, 2012) (noting that an adjudication
on the merits is a dismissal with prejudice).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
