Opinion
Civil Action No. 11-CV-01976-BNB

ORDER OF DISMISSAL
Plaintiff, Michael B. Woolman, currently resides in Lincoln, Nebraska. Mr. Woolman, acting pro se, initiated this action by submitting a Complaint and an Application to Proceed in District Court Without Prepaying Fees or Costs. On August 5, 2011, Magistrate Judge Boyd N. Boland instructed Mr. Woolman to cure certain deficiencies if he wished to pursue his claims. Specifically, Magistrate Judge Boland ordered Mr. Woolman to file the proper Court-approved forms used in filing a civil complaint and in submitting a request to proceed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. Mr. Woolman was warned that the action would be dismissed without further notice if he failed to cure the deficiencies within thirty days.
On August 29, 2011, Mr. Woolman filed a document captioned "Continueance [sic] of Case." In the document, Mr. Woolman requests an extension of six months to comply with the August 5 Order to Cure. Magistrate Judge Boland denied the request, finding that the issues were not sufficiently unique or complex to merit such an extension and gave Mr. Woolman an additional thirty days to comply with the August 5 Order.
Mr. Woolman now has failed to communicate with the Court, and as a result he has failed to cure the deficiencies within the time allowed. Accordingly, it is
ORDERED that the Complaint and action are dismissed without prejudice pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b) for failure to cure the deficiencies and for failure to prosecute.
DATED at Denver, Colorado, this 4th day of October, 2011.
