Plaintiff Moussa Diarra, a pretrial detainee in the Dekalb County Jail in Atlanta, Georgia, filed a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. ECF No. 1. He also moved to proceed in forma pauperis. ECF No. 2.

The Court explained the deficiencies in Plaintiff's original complaint and provided instructions regarding how to proceed with his recast complaint. Id. at 3-4. The Court gave Plaintiff twenty-one days to file his recast complaint and specifically informed him that failure to do so would result in dismissal of his action. Id. at 4-5.
