Plaintiff,

Vv. No. 1:20-cv-02826-JPH-MJD R, FALCONE AUTOMOTIVE INC.,

Defendant. □

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

On March 9, 2021, Defendant filed a "Suggestion of Death," providing notice of Plaintiffs death, dkt. 25, which Plaintiffs counsel later confirmed, see dkt. 27. If a party to a civil action dies, the action "must be dismissed" if no motion for substitution has been "made within 90 days after service of a statement noting the death." Fed. R. Civ. P. 25(a)(1). Because that period has expired and no motion for substitution has been filed, this action is DISMISSED without prejudice. See Sydow v. Weyerhaeuser Co., No. 14-CV- 219-WMC, 2015 WL 6962698, at *1 n.2 (W.D. Wis. Nov. 10, 2015). Final judgment shall issue by separate entry.

SO ORDERED.
