Date Filed Document Text
March 8, 2024 Opinion or Order Filing 13 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION - For the reasons stated, it is respectfully RECOMMENDED that Plaintiff's amended complaint be DISMISSED for failure to state a claim because the complaint is a shotgun pleading, as malicious, and for failing to comply with court orders pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b) and N.D. Fla. L. R. 41.1. See also Moon v. Newsome, 863 F.2d 835, 837 (11th Cir. 1989) (While dismissal is an extraordinary remedy, dismissal upon disregard of an order, especially where the litigant has been forewarned, generally is not an abuse of discretion.). The dismissal should count as a "strike" pursuant to either 28 U.S.C. 1915(e)((2)(B)(i) or (ii). It is further recommended that the case be CLOSED. Signed by MAGISTRATE JUDGE MARTIN A FITZPATRICK on 3/8/24. Internal deadline for referral to district judge if objections are not filed earlier: 4/5/2024. (sjb)
