SCOTT ALLDAY, et al.,
Defendants.
/
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
Plaintiff, proceeding pro se, commenced this action by filing a civil
rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. 	(Doc. 1). 	On November 13,
2025, the Court entered an order directing Plaintiff to file an amended
civil rights complaint within fourteen days. (Doc. 6). The Court notified
Plaintiff that her failure to comply with an order of the Court would
result in a recommendation of dismissal of this case. (Id. at 10).
Plaintiff 	did 	not 	file 	an 	amended 	complaint 	by 	the 	deadline.
Therefore, 	on 	December 4, 	2025, the 	Court 	issued an 	order giving
Plaintiff fourteen days to show cause why this case should not be
dismissed for her failure to comply with a Court order. 	(Doc. 7). 	The
Court notified Plaintiff that her failure to show cause would result in a
recommendation of dismissal of this case. 	(Id.). 	The deadline for

compliance with the show cause order has passed, and Plaintiff has not
responded.
Accordingly, it is respectfully RECOMMENDED that this case be
DISMISSED without prejudice for Plaintiff’s failure to comply with
an order of the Court. 	See N.D. Fla. Loc. R. 41.1 (authorizing dismissal
if a “party fails to comply with an applicable rule or a court order”); see
also Duong Thanh Ho v. Costello, 757 F. App’x 912, 914-15 (11th Cir.
2018) (affirming dismissal where pro se plaintiff failed to file an amended
complaint as directed).
At Pensacola, Florida, this 23rd day of December 2025.
