THIS DOCUMENT RELATES TO:
Rita Jan Bridges v. Mentor Worldwide LLC
Civil Action No. 2:13-cv-20395
MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
Pending before the court is Defendant's Motion to Dismiss [ECF No. 26] filed
by Mentor Worldwide LLC ("Mentor"). The plaintiff has responded [ECF No. 28];
thus, this matter is ripe for my review. For the reasons stated below, the motion is
GRANTED.
Defendant's Motion arises from this court’s Order [ECF No. 25], entered on
February 27, 2018, granting the second Motion to Dismiss [ECF No. 22] filed by
Coloplast Corp. (“Coloplast”) for failure to serve a Plaintiff Fact Sheet (“PFS”) in
compliance with Pretrial Order (“PTO”) # 124. In that Order, I determined that
“[b]ecause the less drastic sanction instituted against the plaintiff has had no effect
on her compliance with and response to this court’s discovery orders, which she has
continued to blatantly disregard, . . . dismissing the defendant with prejudice is now
appropriate.” Order at 2. Now, Mentor moves for dismissal with prejudice on the same
ground.
For the reasons explained in my February 27, 2018 Order dismissing
Coloplast, it is ORDERED that the Defendant's Motion to Dismiss [ECF No. 26] is
GRANTED, and Mentor is DISMISSED with prejudice.
The court DIRECTS the Clerk to send a copy of this Order to counsel of record
and to any unrepresented party.
