IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

WESTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

EL DORADO DIVISION

MICHAEL E. MONK PLAINTIFF

VS. CASE NO. 05-CV-1002

JIMMY SMITH, et al. DEFENDANTS

ORDER

Before the Court is a Motion to Dismiss filed by the Defendant. (Doc. No. 66). This case

is currently set for trial on August 13, 2007. Defendant argues that this case should be dismissed

because Plaintiff has failed to act in accordance with the Court’s order. On May 2, 2007, the

Court granted Plaintiff’s Motion to Withdraw as Counsel and ordered Plaintiff to obtain new

counsel or to proceed pro se within thirty days. (Doc. 65). Defendant asserts that Plaintiff has

refused to comply with the Court’s order. Plaintiff has not indicated to the Court that he has

obtained new counsel. Because Plaintiff has not obtained new counsel, the Court assumes that

he is proceeding pro se in this matter. Thus, Plaintiff has not failed to comply with the Court’s

May 2, 2007 order. 

 Upon consideration, the Court finds that the Motion to Dismiss should be and hereby is

DENIED. The Clerk of the Court is directed to mail a copy of this order to the Plaintiff at 9711

Southwest Drive, Little Rock, AR 72209.

 IT IS SO ORDERED, this 10th day of July, 2007.
