In one sentence

In Caradine v. Faulder, Judge Corley dismissed Caradine’s civil-rights case with prejudice after he failed to amend his complaint.

Who this affects

The dismissal ended Leartis K.M. Caradine’s case in the district court and closed the file; the opinion does not describe any further effect on the defendants.

What happened

In Caradine v. Faulder, the court had previously dismissed Leartis K.M. Caradine’s civil-rights complaint because it did not present a valid claim for relief.

The court gave Caradine 28 days to file an amended complaint, but he did not do so.

The court dismissed the case with prejudice and directed the Clerk to enter judgment and close the file. Judge Jacqueline Scott Corley issued the order.
