OLGA BENITEZ, Plaintiff, v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Defendant.
ORDER
ROBERT W. LEHRBURGER, UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
On February 11, 2022, the Court ordered Plaintiff's counsel to file status reports every 60 days, or within seven days of appointment of an estate administrator, whichever is earlier. (Dkt. 39.) After Plaintiff's counsel failed to do so, the Court ordered Plaintiff's counsel to file a status update by May 11, 2022. (Dkt. 40.)
On June 3, 2022, Plaintiff filed a letter stating that they anticipated the Court appointment of Eileen Sepulveda as administrator to be completed within the next two months. (Dkt. 41.)
On September 12, 2022, after receiving no updates, the Court ordered Plaintiff's counsel to file a status update by September 19, 2022. (Dkt. 43.) Plaintiff's counsel failed to do so.
On December 15, 2022, the Court ordered Plaintiff's counsel to file a status update by December 20, 2022 and continuing every 60 days thereafter. (Dkt. 44.) Plaintiff's counsel has again failed to do so.
Accordingly, Plaintiff's counsel shall file a status update by January 31, 2023 (and continuing every 60 days thereafter). If Plaintiff's counsel fails to timely file the required update, an order to show cause will be issued as to why the case should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute.
SO ORDERED.
