Cynthia Stocker v. HHS - sensorineural hearing loss, vertigo, and labyrinthitis (2025)

Cynthia Stocker filed a petition on September 14, 2022, alleging that she suffered sensorineural hearing loss, vertigo, and labyrinthitis as a result of several vaccines she received on September 16, 2019. The court issued an initial order requiring her to file supporting documentation, and she submitted some medical records in October 2022.

Her counsel subsequently filed multiple requests for extensions, citing an inability to contact Ms. Stocker, and no further supporting documentation was filed after 2022.

After nearly two years of unresponsiveness and continued requests for extensions, the court issued an Order to Show Cause why the case should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute. Despite proof of service and continued efforts by counsel to contact Ms.

Stocker, she remained unresponsive. Consequently, the case was dismissed for failure to prosecute, as it is the petitioner's obligation to comply with court orders and communicate with counsel.
