Opinion
Case No. 4:17cv216-RH/CAS
08-03-2017
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
Plaintiff, proceeding pro se, initiated this case by submitting an affidavit with a complaint form. ECF No. 1. The complaint form was unsigned, although Plaintiff signed the affidavit, and contains no factual allegations, no statement of claims, and no request for relief. Plaintiff also filed an "amended complaint," on June 12, 2017. That document was frivolous and did not allege that Plaintiff's constitutional rights were violated. Additionally, Plaintiff was advised that his requested relief (to have former President Obama arrested, charged, and "sentence[d] to death by burning at the stake") was not relief that could be provided in a civil rights action. ECF No. 5.
Additionally, an Order was entered requiring Plaintiff to either pay the filing fee for this case or file an in forma pauperis motion no later than July 24, 2017. ECF No. 5. Plaintiff was advised that if he did not comply with that Order, a recommendation would be entered recommending that this case be dismissed. Id. Nothing further has been received from Plaintiff. Having been warned of the consequences of failing to comply, this case should now be dismissed.
It is respectfully RECOMMENDED that this case be DISMISSED for failure to comply with a court order and for failure to prosecute pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b).
IN CHAMBERS at Tallahassee, Florida, on August 3, 2017.
