Judge Trauger/Brown
Jury Demand

O R D E R
The Defendants have filed a motion to compel (Docket
Entry 61). In this motion they request a hearing.
The Magistrate Judge is disappointed that the issue of
the medical releases and the obtaining of the medical proof is
still not completed. This matter is set for a hearing in court on
Thursday, July 2, 2014, at 11:00 a.m. The hearing will be canceled
if counsel for the Defendants advises that they have received the
releases they have requested in their motion to compel (Docket
Entry 61).
The Plaintiff is warned that he is perilously close to
having the Magistrate Judge recommend that his case be dismissed.
Failing to appear at hearings, meetings, and being late for
telephone conferences with the Court and opposing counsel is simply
not acceptable and, if it continues, the Magistrate Judge will
quite likely recommend that the case be dismissed for failure to
prosecute and to obey court orders.
It is so ORDERED.
