IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT F O R THE MIDDLE DISTRICT OF ALABAMA NORTHERN DIVISION ____________________________ R O B E R T JUNIOR ROBINSON, #171 121 P l a in tif f , v. W A R D E N LEVAN THOMAS, et al., D e f e n d a n ts . ____________________________ * * * * * 2:08-CV-1008-MEF (WO) R E C O M M E N D A T I O N OF THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE O n January 6, 2009 the court granted Plaintiff fifteen days to file with the Clerk either th e $350.00 filing fee or a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis accompanied by an affidavit in support thereof. (Doc. No. 2.) Plaintiff was cautioned that his failure to c o m p ly with the January 6 order would result in a Recommendation that his complaint be d is m is s e d . (Id.) The requisite time has passed and Plaintiff has not provided the court with e ith e r the filing fee or a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. Consequently, the c o u rt concludes that dismissal of this case is appropriate for Plaintiff's failures to comply w ith the orders of the court and to prosecute this action. A c c o r d in g ly, it is the RECOMMENDATION of the Magistrate Judge that this case b e DISMISSED without prejudice for Plaintiff's failures to comply with the orders of this c o u rt and to prosecute this action. It is further ORDERED that the parties are DIRECTED to file any objections to the R e c o m m e n d a tio n on or before February 9, 2009. Any objections filed must specifically id e n tif y the findings in the Magistrate Judge's Recommendation to which a party objects. F r iv o lo u s , conclusive or general objections will not be considered by the District Court. The p a rtie s are advised that this Recommendation is not a final order of the court and, therefore, it is not appealable. F a ilu re to file written objections to the proposed findings and recommendations in the M a g is tra te Judge's report shall bar the party from a de novo determination by the District C o u rt of issues covered in the report and shall bar the party from attacking on appeal factual f in d in g s in the report accepted or adopted by the District Court except upon grounds of plain e rr o r or manifest injustice.
