Kensting, R.J.E. v. Schroeder, W.A.

Filing 16

ORDER dismissing this case for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. Signed by District Judge James D. Peterson on 1/24/2017. (jef),(ps)

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN

R.J.E. KENSTING,
Plaintiff,

ORDER

v.

16-cv-771-jdp

W.A. SCHROEDER,
Defendant.

In a December 22, 2016 order, I dismissed plaintiff R.J.E. Kensting’s complaint for
failure to comply with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 8. Dkt. 15. I gave Kensting until
January 12, 2017, to submit a proposed amended complaint addressing the deficiencies
explained in the December 22 order. In addition, I warned Kensting that a failure to respond
to the court’s order would result in dismissal of this case for lack of subject matter
jurisdiction. It is now past Kensting’s January 12 deadline, and Kensting has not filed an
amended complaint or otherwise responded to the court’s order.
Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that this case is DISMISSED for lack of subject matter
jurisdiction. The clerk of court is directed enter judgment in favor of defendant and close this
case.
Entered January 24, 2017.
BY THE COURT:
