timely do so. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b); Local Rule 5.5(c)(2). As of today's date, Atwood has not
complied with the August 17, 2015Order, and the time for doing so has expired.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED THAT this case is dismissed without prejudice due to a lack
of prosecution. It is certified, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3), that an in forma pauperis appeal
would not be taken in good faith.
Dated this 24th day of September, 2015.
