William A. Faith v. HHS - Influenza, Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) (2022)

William A. Faith filed a petition alleging Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) as a result of an influenza vaccination received on September 12, 2017.

His counsel filed the petition on September 14, 2020. The court initially ordered Petitioner to file his medical records by September 25, 2020, but granted multiple extensions.

Petitioner's counsel then moved to withdraw due to irreconcilable differences, which was granted, and the case proceeded pro se. The Special Master issued an initial order on September 30, 2021, directing Petitioner to file his medical records and a statement of completion by November 29, 2021.

Petitioner failed to comply and did not contact Chambers. After further extensions and a Show Cause Order, Petitioner continued to fail to file his medical records or communicate with the court.

After 727 days to file medical records and 40 days to respond to the Show Cause Order, the case was dismissed for failure to prosecute.
