EDDIE JAMES OTIS ATKINS, Plaintiff, v. DERMAL G. ADAMS, et al., Defendants.
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE WHY THE ACTION
SHOULD NOT BE DISMISSED FOR FAILURE
TO PROSECUTE
Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this action. On August 3, 2011, the Court dismissed Plaintiff's Second Amended Complaint with leave to amend. (Doc. 24) On September 6, 2011, the Court granted Plaintiff's request for a 30-day extension of time to file his Third Amended Complaint. (Doc. 26) As a result, Plaintiff's Third Amended Complaint was due to be filed no later than October 11, 2011. However, Plaintiff has not filed the complaint.
Therefore, no later than February 3, 2012, Plaintiff is ordered to show cause why the matter should not be dismissed based upon his failure to prosecute this action. Plaintiff's failure to respond and show good cause for his failure to prosecute this action shall result in an order dismissing this case. IT IS SO ORDERED.
