ORDER: Plaintiff has not filed a third amended complaint and has not otherwise communicated with the Court. A district court may dismiss a claim with prejudice for failure to prosecute. Palmieri v. Defaria, 88 F.3d 136, 140 (2d Cir. 1996). Such au thority "is an inherent...control necessarilyvested in courts to manage their own affairs so as to achieve the orderly and expeditious disposition of cases." Theilmann v. Rutland Hospital, 455 F.2d 853, 855 (2d Cir.1972) (quoting Link v. Wabash R.R. Co., 370 U.S. 626, 63031 (1962)). Given this authority, the Court concludes that dismissal of Plaintiffs Eighth and Fourteenth Amendment claims is warranted. Plaintiff has been afforded nearly a year to file a third amended complaint t o address the deficiencies in his Eighth and Fourteenth Amendment claims and has not done so. Plaintiff was instructed that failure to do so could result in dismissal of these claims. (Dkt. No 60.) Given that Plaintiff has not filed a third amended complaint, his Eighth and Fourteenth Amendment claims are dismissed with prejudice. The Clerk of Court is directed to mail a copy of this Order to Plaintiff. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Kenneth M. Karas on 4/1/2021) (jca) Transmission to Docket Assistant Clerk for processing.

OPINION AND ORDER re: 52 FIRST MOTION to Dismiss the Amended Complaint (Notice of Motion). filed by Ann Marie T. Sullivan, Anthony Annucci. For the reasons stated above, Defendants' Motion To Dismiss is granted in part and den ied in part. Plaintiff's Fourteenth Amendment claim regarding his status as a sex offender and First Amendment claim regarding the imposition of sanctions besides the revocation of good time credits by Annucci, (Am. Compl. 3), are not dismisse d. Plaintiff's Fifth Amendment claim is dismissed with prejudice. Certain of Plaintiffs First, Eighth, and Fourteenth Amendment claims are dismissed under Heck without prejudice to reinstitution of these claims in the event that Plaintiff 9;s conviction or incarceration is invalidated by "executive order,...a state tribunal authorized to make such determination, or called into question by a federal court's issuance of a writ of habeas corpus." Amaker, 179 F.3d at 52 ( collecting cases). Additionally, Plaintiffs Eighth Amendment claim regarding other sanctions imposed by Annucci, (Am. Compl. 3), and Fourteenth Amendment claim regarding procedural defects, such as notice, that would not necessarily invalidate the revocation of his good time credits are dismissed without prejudice. If Plaintiff wishes to file a third amended complaint alleging additional facts with respect to these Eighth and Fourteenth Amendment claims, and otherwise addressing the defici encies identified above, Plaintiff must do so within 30 days of the date of this Opinion & Order. Plaintiff is advised that the third amended complaint will replace, not supplement, all prior complaints. The third amended complaint must contain all of the claims, factual allegations, and exhibits that Plaintiff wishes the Court to consider. Failure to timely file a third amended complaint may result in dismissal of Plaintiff's remaining claims with prejudice. The Clerk of the Court is r espectfully directed to terminate the pending Motion. (Dkt. No. 52.) The Clerk of the Court is also respectfully directed to mail a copy of this Opinion & Order to Plaintiff. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Kenneth M. Karas on 3/27/2020) (jca) Transmission to Docket Assistant Clerk for processing.

OPINION AND ORDER: re: 23 MOTION to Dismiss filed by Anthony Annucci. For the foregoing reasons, Defendant's Motion To Dismiss is granted. Because this is the first adjudication of Plaintiff's claims on the merits, the dismissal is with out prejudice. See Terry v. Inc. Vill. Of Patchogue, 826 F.3d 631, 633 (2d Cir. 2016) (explaining that "district judges should, as a general matter, liberally permit pro se litigants to amend their pleadings" unless "amendment would be futile"). Should Plaintiff choose to file an amended complaint, he must do so within 30 days of this Opinion, addressing the deficiencies identified herein. The new amended complaint will replace, not supplement, the complaint currently before the Court. It therefore must contain all of the claims and factual allegations Plaintiff wishes the Court to consider. The Court will not consider factual allegations raised in supplemental declarations, affidavits, or letters. If Plaintiff fails to abide by the 30-day deadline, this action could be dismissed with prejudice. The Clerk of the Court is respectfully requested to terminate the pending motion, (Dkt. No. 23), and to mail a copy of this Opinion to Plaintiff. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Kenneth M. Karas on 9/25/2018) (ama) Transmission to Docket Assistant Clerk for processing.
