DEBRADRE JACKSON, Plaintiff, v. ROBERT SOUSEK, SANDRA ENDER, P. HULSTEIN, MAASSEN, DEBRA TIDQUIST, BRET REYNOLDS, WARDEN LIZ TEAGLE AND KRISTINE PRALLE, Defendants.
OPINION AND ORDER
Pro se plaintiff and prisoner DeBradre Jackson is proceeding on claims that health services staff at Jackson Correctional Institution failed to provide him treatment for his spine and shoulder. On January 29, 2021, defendants filed a motion for summary judgment on plaintiff's claims. Dkt. #16. Plaintiff's opposition materials were due on March 1, 2021, but he has not responded to defendants' motion or communicated with the court in any way. Plaintiff's failure to respond to defendants' motion suggests that plaintiff may have lost interest in pursuing his case and no longer intends to prosecute it.
I will give plaintiff one more opportunity to submit a substantive response to defendants' motion for summary judgment. If he fails to do so by the new deadline, I will dismiss this case with prejudice under Rule 41 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for plaintiff's failure to prosecute.
ORDER
IT IS ORDERED that plaintiff DeBradre Jackson may have until April 9, 2021 to file a response to defendants' motion for summary judgment. If plaintiff does not respond by that date, I will dismiss this case with prejudice under Fed. R. Civ. P. 41 for plaintiff's failure to prosecute it.
Entered this 19th day of March, 2021.
