MEMORANDUM OPINION (Dismissing Action Without Prejudice)

HENRY HUDSON, District Judge

Petitioner, proceeding pro se, submitted a Section 2241 petition. By Memorandum Order dated March 19, 2009, the Court directed Petitioner to complete and return within fifteen days the "Affidavit in Support of Request to Proceed In Forma Pauperis." See 28 U.S.C. § 1914(a) and (c) (authorizing courts to require prepayment of mandatory filing fee); 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a). More than fifteen days have passed and Petitioner has failed to pay the assessed fee or explain any special circumstances warranting excuse from payment. Accordingly, the action will be DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.

An appropriate Order shall issue.
