Filing 18
ENDORSED ORDER denying Plaintiff's Motion for Opinion and Order (Doc. #17). In the motion, Plaintiff simply rehashes his allegations and asks the Court not to grant Defendants' motion to dismiss. But there is no motion to dismiss pending, and the Court lacks jurisdiction to grant any prejudgment relief. (Doc. 15). Signed by Judge Sheri Polster Chappell on 2/11/2026. (JMM)

Filing 15
ENDORSED ORDER. After the Court dismissed Plaintiff's complaint with leave to amend (Doc. #12), Plaintiff failed to timely file an amended complaint. As such, the Court's dismissal Order is a final, appealable Order; the Court has surrendered its jurisdiction; and the Court has no prejudgment power to grant any further extensions. See Hertz Corp. v. Alamo Rent-A-Car, Inc., 16 F.3d 1126, 1133 (11th Cir. 1994); see also Auto. Alignment & Body Serv., Inc. v. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co., 953 F.3d 707, 720 (11th Cir. 2020) (holding a court cannot grant an extension under Rule 6(b)(1)(B) after a plaintiff misses the deadline to amend). The Clerk is DIRECTED to deny all pending motions as moot, terminate any deadlines, and close the case. Signed by Judge Sheri Polster Chappell on 2/2/2026. (JMM)
