ORDER

In a October 25, 2010 Order (Doc. 35), the Court gave Plaintiff 30 days to complete

and return to the Clerk of Court a Notice of Submission of Documents and submit with the

Notice a copy of the Third Amended Complaint, a copy of the Court’s October 25, 2010

Order, a completed summons for each Defendant, and a completed USM-285 for each

Defendant. The Court warned Plaintiff as follows: 

If Plaintiff fails to return the Notice of Submission of

Documents and the required documents within 30 days of

the date of filing of this Order, the Clerk of Court must,

without further notice, enter a judgment of dismissal of this

action without prejudice.

On December 21, 2010, the Court dismissed this action because Plaintiff had not

returned the Notice of Submission of Documents within the 30-day deadline (Doc. 36). The

Clerk of Court entered Judgment on December 21, 2010 (Doc. 37). Plaintiff then filed a

“Motion for Stay”in which he requested an extension of time to file the Notice of Submission

of Documents. In a December 28, 2010 Order, the Court denied the “Motion for Stay.” On

January 10, 2011, six weeks after the November 29, 2010 filing deadline and 20 days after
