1Per curiam
Sig M. Glukstad, Inc. appeals the district court’s dismissal of its complaint for failure to comply with a discovery order to reveal the identity of its undisclosed principal. Because we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in choosing the extreme sanction of dismissal, we affirm.
Glukstad is a freight forwarder in Miami, Florida. For several years Glukstad has forwarded watches arriving from Hong Kong to various foreign countries for an undisclosed principal. Glukstad does not have any financial interest in the cargo forwarded, but acts strictly as a freight forwarder.
