Defs.' Mot. to Dismiss, d/e #8 . Although all the papers filed in this matter indicate that they properly were served on counsel to Plaintiff Jerry Yeager, Jr., Mr. Yeager's counsel has yet to enter an appearance. Similarly, although Local Rule 7.1 requires any party opposing a motion to dismiss to respond within 14 days of service, LR-Civ. 7.1(B)(2), Mr. Yeager has yet to respond to the motion to dismiss. Mr. Yeager is DIRECTED to file, by December 21, 2023, an entry of appearance and a response to the motion to dismiss.

Chicago Tribune Co., 8 F.3d 1195, 1199 (7th Cir. 1993) ("It is well-established that district courts possess inherent authority to dismiss a case sua sponte for a plaintiff's failure to prosecute.").(GL)
