CHARLES S. COODY, Magistrate Judge.
This 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action is pending before the court on a complaint filed by Brandy Colt Shuemaker ["Shuemaker"], an indigent state inmate. In the complaint, Shuemaker challenges conditions to which she was subjected during her confinement at the Montgomery Women's Pre-Release Facility.
Pursuant to the orders of this court, the defendants filed written reports supported by relevant evidentiary materials, including affidavits, disciplinary/personnel actions and medical records, in which they addressed the claims for relief presented by Shuemaker. The reports and evidentiary materials refute the self-serving, conclusory allegations presented by Shuemaker in the complaint.
In light of the foregoing, the court issued an order directing Shuemaker to file a response to the defendants' written reports. Order of November 15, 2012 — Doc. No. 14. The order advised Shuemaker that her failure to respond to the reports would be treated by the court "
The court has reviewed the file to determine whether a less drastic measure than dismissal is appropriate. After such review, it is clear that dismissal of this case is the proper course of action at this time. Shuemaker is an indigent individual. Thus, the imposition of monetary or other punitive sanctions against her would be ineffectual. Additionally, Shuemaker's inaction in the face of the defendants' reports and documentary evidence suggests a lack of interest in the continued prosecution of this case. Finally, the undisputed evidentiary materials submitted by the defendants indicate that no violation of the Constitution occurred. It therefore appears that any additional effort by this court to secure her compliance would be unavailing. When this case was reassigned to another District Judge on August 22, 2014, the notice of that reassignment sent to the plaintiff was returned to this court with the notation, "Return to Sender, Unauthorized, Refused." Consequently, the court concludes that the plaintiff's failure to comply with an order of this ourt warrants dismissal. Moon v. Newsome, 863 F.2d 835, 837 (11
