In Zion Dwayne Mac Young v. Aramark, Judge Corley dismissed the case with prejudice after plaintiffs failed to amend their complaint.
The plaintiffs’ case against Aramark was dismissed with prejudice, and the Clerk was directed to enter judgment and close the file.
What happened
In Zion Dwayne Mac Young, et al. v. Aramark, the court had previously dismissed the plaintiffs’ civil-rights complaint because it did not present a valid claim for relief. The court allowed the plaintiffs to file an amended complaint by November 26, 2025.
The plaintiffs did not file an amended complaint, ask for more time, explain why they had not filed one, or otherwise respond to the court’s order. The court therefore dismissed the case with prejudice.
Judge Jacqueline Scott Corley ordered the Clerk to enter judgment and close the file.

Background
On October 24, 2025, the court dismissed the plaintiffs’ civil-rights complaint for failure to present a cognizable claim for relief. The court gave the plaintiffs permission to file an amended complaint by November 26, 2025 and warned that the case could be dismissed if they did not do so.
Ruling
The plaintiffs did not file an amended complaint, request an extension of time, show cause for failing to comply, or otherwise respond to the court’s order. The court accordingly dismissed the case with prejudice. It directed the Clerk to enter judgment and close the file.
Disposition and classification
This was a procedural dismissal based on the plaintiffs’ failure to amend or otherwise respond after the earlier dismissal. The order did not decide the merits of the underlying civil-rights allegations.
