ROBERT KENNEY, JR., Petitioner, v. WARDEN J. ANDREWS, Respondent.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Petitioner, proceeding pro se, submitted a petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. By Memorandum Order entered on March 16, 2020, the Court directed Petitioner to complete and return, within fifteen days of the date of entry thereof, an affidavit in support of his request to proceed in forma pauperis or pay the $5.00 filing fee. More than fifteen (15) days have passed and Petitioner has not returned the required in forma pauperis affidavit.
Petitioner has failed to pay the assessed fee or adequately explain any special circumstances warranting excuse from payment. Accordingly, the petition will be DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
An appropriate Order shall issue.
