Opinion

Civil Action No. 3:09CV114.

June 19, 2009


MEMORANDUM OPINION


On March 19, 2009, the Court conditionally docketed Edmunds's action. Edmunds requested leave to proceed in forma pauperis. By Memorandum Order entered on April 15, 2009, the Court directed Edmunds to pay an initial partial filing fee of $6.67 or state under penalty of perjury that he did not have sufficient assets to pay such a fee within eleven (11) days of the date of entry thereof. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b)(1). Edmunds has neither paid the initial partial filing fee nor averred that he can not pay such a fee. Therefore, Edmunds is not entitled to proceed in forma pauperis. Edmunds's disregard of the Court's directives warrants dismissal of the action. Accordingly, the action will be dismissed without prejudice.

The Clerk is directed to send a copy of the Memorandum Opinion to Edmunds.
