ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANT’S MOTION FOR SANCTIONS AND DISMISSING CASE

BENNETT, District Judge.

This matter comes before the court pursuant to defendant’s October 24,1994, unresist-*634ed motion for sanctions including dismissal. The present motion follows a series of motions and orders directed at the pro se plaintiff’s failure to comply with discovery or with court orders to prepare the case for trial. In light of plaintiffs persistent disregard for discovery requests and court orders, the court concludes that as an appropriate sanction this matter should be dismissed for want of prosecution.
