June 23, 2008

REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION

ELIZABETH TIMOTHY, Magistrate Judge

This cause is before the court upon referral from the clerk. Plaintiff commenced this action by filing a civil rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (Doc. 1). On April 24, 2008, this court entered an order giving Plaintiff thirty (30) days in which to pay the filing fee or file a complete application to proceed in forma pauperis (Doc. 5). Plaintiff failed to respond to the order; therefore, on May 28, 2008, the court issued an order requiring Plaintiff to show cause, within twenty (20) days, why this action should not be dismissed for failure to comply with an order of the court (Doc. 6). The time for compliance with the show cause order has now elapsed, and Plaintiff has not responded.

Accordingly, it is respectfully RECOMMENDED:

That this case be DISMISSED without prejudice for Plaintiff's failure to comply with an order of the court.
