ROTIMI ODOLE,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No. 16-cv-118-pp

GREG SANTARELLI, et al.,
Defendants.
______________________________________________________________________________
ORDER DISMISSING THE PLAINTIFF’S CASE
WITH PREJUDICE FOR LACK OF DILIGENT PROSECUTION
______________________________________________________________________________
On June 30, 2017, the court issued an order to show cause why the
court should not dismiss the plaintiff’s case for his failure to respond to the
defendants’ motion for summary judgment. Dkt. No. 66. The plaintiff did not
respond by the deadline the court set, and has not otherwise communicated
with the court. On July 10, 2017, the show cause order came back to the court
in the mail as “undeliverable.” Dkt. No. 67. The court already had warned the
plaintiff that it was his responsibility to notify the court of any changes in
address, and that his failure to do so could result in dismissal of the case. Dkt.
No. 11 at 9. The court will dismiss this case with prejudice for lack of diligent
prosecution. See Fed. R. Civ. P 41(c).
The court DISMISES WITH PREJUDICE the plaintiff’s case, and will
enter judgment accordingly.
Dated in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, this 14th day of August, 2017.
