VALERIE KREGER-MUELLER,
Plaintiff,
v.
DAVID M. FLORES, JUDGE SHELLY GAYLORD,
JASON HANSON, JUDGE RICHARD NIESS,
JENNIFER GINSBERG, SAFE HARBOR, DANE
COUNTY CPS, DANE COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT,
DAVID MITCHELL, and COURTNEY PLEIST,

ORDER
16-cv-326-jdp

Defendants.

Pro se plaintiff Valerie Kreger-Mueller filed two proposed civil actions alleging
employment discrimination and violations of her due process rights. Her amended
complaints failed to properly state a claim, so I dismissed them, but allowed her the
opportunity to file a second and a third amended complaint. Case No. 16-cv-283-jdp, Dkt. 9,
and Case No. 16-cv-326-jdp, Dkt. 6. I gave plaintiff until August 23, 2016, to do so and
warned her that if she failed to respond, then I would enter judgment for defendants.

Plaintiff has responded with the same filings in both cases, so the court will consider
them together. Plaintiff requests an extension of time to file her amended complaints. See
Case No. 16-cv-283-jdp, Dkt. 10, and Case No. 16-cv-326-jdp, Dkt. 7. She cryptically cites
recent illness and attaches notes from doctors confirming appointments back in June and
July. Dkt. 7-1 and Dkt. 10-1. But plaintiff does not explain why doctor visits two months ago
would prevent her from timely filing an amended complaint now. Those motions will be
denied. However, plaintiff has moved again for an extension, stating that she is currently in
the hospital and cannot access her documents or a computer. Dkt. 8 and Dkt. 11. I will grant
the requested extensions, but the new deadlines will be firm. Any future extension requests or
excuses must be corroborated with supporting evidence. If plaintiff fails to timely file her
amended complaints, then I will direct the clerk to enter judgment in favor of defendants in
both cases.

ORDER
IT IS ORDERED that:
1. Plaintiff Valerie Kreger-Mueller’s motions for an extension, Case No. 16-cv326-jdp, Dkt. 7; and Case No. 16-cv-283-jdp, Dkt. 10, are DENIED.
2. Plaintiff’s second motions for an extension, Case No. 16-cv-326-jdp, Dkt. 8;
and Case No. 16-cv-283-jdp, Dkt. 11, are GRANTED.
3. Plaintiff’s amended complaints are due on October 7, 2016.
Entered August 29, 2016.
