JOSHUA SANDER, Plaintiff, v. SHERIFF DAVE DUCHAK, et al., Defendants.
District Judge Walter H. Rice
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION THAT THIS CASE BE: (1) DISMISSED FOR FAILURE TO PROSECUTE; AND (2) TERMINATED ON THE COURT'S DOCKET
Attached hereto is a NOTICE to the parties regarding objections to this Report and Recommendation.
This is a civil rights case in which pro se Plaintiff Joshua K. Sander asserts claims under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against a number of Defendants arising from alleged acts and/or omissions by Defendants during his incarceration at the Miami County, Ohio Jail ("the Jail"). Recent attempts to serve Plaintiff with Court Orders were returned to the Court as undeliverable. See doc. 23, 25. Having previously advised the parties of their obligation to keep the Court apprised of any changes to their contact information, the undersigned, on July 23, 2019, ordered Plaintiff to update his contact information within 7 days and to show cause as to why this case should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute. Doc. 24. Plaintiff has neither updated his contact information nor shown cause as ordered. As a result of Plaintiff's failures to comply with Court Orders, the undersigned RECOMMENDS that this case be: (1) DISMISSED for failure to prosecute under Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b); and (2) TERMINATED on the Court's docket. Date: August 26, 2019

Any objections filed shall specify the portions of the Report and Recommendation objected to, and shall be accompanied by a memorandum of law in support of the objections. If the Report and Recommendation is based, in whole or in part, upon matters occurring of record at an oral hearing, the objecting party shall promptly arrange for the transcription of the record, or such portions of it as all parties may agree upon or the Magistrate Judge deems sufficient, unless the assigned District Judge otherwise directs.
A party may respond to another party's objections within FOURTEEN days after being served with a copy thereof. As noted above, this period is not extended by virtue of Fed. R. Civ.
