Jeremiah Scott, Plaintiff v. Philip J. Kohn and Steven Grierson, Defendants
Order Adopting Report and Recommendation and Dismissing Case
[ECF No. 4]
Pro se plaintiff Jeremiah Scott filed this civil-rights case with an incomplete complaint, without paying the $400 filing fee, and without applying to proceed in forma pauperis. On October 23, 2017, Magistrate Judge Foley directed the Clerk of Court to send to Scott a pauper application and instructions for filling it out. Judge Foley also warned Scott that failure to pay the filing fee or submit a completed pauper application by November 22, 2017, would result in his recommendation that this case be dismissed.

ECF No. 3.
That deadline came and went, and Scott did not comply with Judge Foley's order or otherwise heed his warning. So, Judge Foley recommends that I dismiss this case without prejudice. The recommendation was issued on December 1, 2017, making December 15, 2017, the deadline to file objections. This deadline has also expired, and Mr. Scott has not objected. "[N]o review is required of a magistrate judge's report and recommendation unless objections are filed." Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Magistrate Judge Foley's report and recommendation [ECF No. 4] is ACCEPTED and ADOPTED. This case is DISMISSED without prejudice to Scott's ability to file his claims in a new, separate case with a completed application to proceed in forma pauperis or the $400 filing fee. The Clerk of Court is directed to CLOSE THIS CASE.
