Plaintiff, Case No. 2:25-cv-930-KCD-DNF

v.

FORT MYERS M AUTOMOTIVE MANAGEMENT, LLC, MAZDA FINANCIAL SERVICES, TOYOTA MOTOR CREDIT CORPORATION, ABS RECOVERY SERVICE INCORPORATED,

Defendants. /

ORDER The Court entered two orders instructing Plaintiff to file an amended application to proceed in forma pauperis. (Docs. 8, 15.) These deadlines all passed with no new application. Ignoring the Court’s orders is grounds for dismissal. “A plaintiff’s failure to prosecute diligently can result in dismissal if the plaintiff in response to an order to show cause fails to demonstrate due diligence and just cause for delay.” M.D. Fla. R. 3.10. Similarly, the Court has the “inherent power” to dismiss a case for lack of prosecution under its authority to manage its docket. Link v. Wabash R. Co.,

(1962). Plaintiff was warned that failure to file an amended application would result in dismissal. (Doc. 15.) Accordingly, it is now ORDERED: 1. Plaintiff's claims are dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute. 2. The Clerk is DIRECTED to enter judgment, terminate any pending deadlines, and close the case. ENTERED in Fort Myers, Florida on December 17, 2025.
