Date Filed Document Text
June 26, 2019 Filing 12 Mail Returned as undeliverable. #7 Closed Judgment, #6 Order sent to DOMINIQUE SANDRA MARIE LAX at 207566, 100 W. Washington St., Muncie, IN 47305. (JDH)
June 14, 2019 Filing 11 Mail Returned as undeliverable. #3 Magistrate Judge's Notice of Availability to Exercise Jurisdiction sent to DOMINIQUE SANDRA MARIE LAX. (JDH)
June 13, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 10 Order Denying Motion for Extension of Time - Plaintiffs' motion to extend the time for showing cause why this action should not be dismissed, dkt. #8 , is denied. The motion was filed five days after the deadline for showing cause, see dkt. 4, and does not demonstrate good cause for extending the deadline. Plaintiff Dominique Sandra Marie Lax was in jail when this action was filed and remains in jail as of this date. That she is confined in allegedly poor conditions is not a circumstance that prevented plaintiff Crystal Lax from complying with Court deadlines. This action remains closed pursuant to the Order and Final Judgment entered June 11, 2019. Copies to Crystal Lax and Dominique Sandra Marie Lax via U.S. mail. Signed by Judge Jane Magnus-Stinson on 6/13/2019. (JDH)
June 11, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 7 CLOSED JUDGMENT. FINAL JUDGMENT - The Court having this day made its Order directing the entry of final judgment, now enters FINAL JUDGMENT. This action is dismissed for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. (Copy to Plaintiff via U.S. Mail) Signed by Judge Jane Magnus-Stinson on 6/11/2019.(JDC)
June 11, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 6 Order Dismissing Action and Directing Entry of Final Judgment - Plaintiff Crystal Lax filed this action on her and her daughter's behalf. Ms. Lax is not an attorney. The filing fee was not paid, and none of the named defendants are suable entities. On screening, none of the asserted claims were found to be viable federal claims. The complaint was dismissed. The Court allowed Ms. Lax through June 5, 2018, in which to pay the filing fee or submit a properly completed motion for in forma pauperis status, and to file an amended complaint that cured the deficiencies identified in the screening order. Ms. Lax was informed that the failure to comply with the screening order no later than June 5, 2018, would result in the dismissal of this action. No amended complaint has been filed, nor has the filing fee been paid. For these reasons, and for the reasons explained in the screening order of May 3, 2019, see dkt. #4 , this action is dismissed for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. Final judgment consistent with this Order shall now enter. (Copy to Plaintiff via U.S. Mail) Signed by Judge Jane Magnus-Stinson on 6/11/2019.(JDC) Modified on 6/12/2019 (JDH).
