Civil Action No. 11-cv-01598-CMA-KLM
11-30-2011
Judge Christine M. Arguello
ORDER DISMISSING ACTION FOR PLAINTIFF'S FAILURE TO SHOW CAUSE
This matter is before the Court sua sponte. On October 21, 2011, Magistrate Judge Kristen L. Mix, to whom this case was referred (see Doc. # 13), issued an Order to Show Cause (Doc. # 14) as to why Plaintiff's Complaint should not be dismissed for failure to comply with D.C.Colo.LCivR 10.1M. The Order stated that "Plaintiff shall respond, in writing, to the Order to Show Cause on or before November 4, 2011. Failure to . . . respond to this Order will result in this Court issuing a recommendation to dismiss Plaintiff's action." (Doc. # 14 (emphasis in original).) Plaintiff has not responded. The Court, having reviewed the record and applicable law, does not find it necessary for the Magistrate Judge to issue a recommendation. Instead, it is hereby
ORDERED that this action is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE for Plaintiff's failure to comply with the Order to Show Cause (Doc. # 14).
Although unnecessary to the disposition of this matter, the Court notes that Plaintiff has taken no action in this case since July 15, 2011. (See Doc. # 4.) Thus, Plaintiff has failed to prosecute this action in a prompt and timely manner.
BY THE COURT:
CHRISTINE M. ARGUELLO
United States District Judge
