ORDER
On July 1, 2011, Plaintiff Frankie Williams, an inmate incarcerated at the
Arkansas Department of Correction, filed this case pro se under 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
(Docket entry #1) Mr. Williams did not pay the statutory $350.00 filing fee; nor did he
submit an application to proceed in forma pauperis so that he could pay the filing fee over
time.
On July 11, 2011, Mr. Williams was ordered to pay the filing fee or to file an
application to proceed in forma pauperis within 30 days. On July 29, 2011, Mr. Williams
moved for an extension of time to file for in forma pauperis status. His motion was
granted by Order of August 8, 2011. Mr. Williams was warned that failure to comply
with the Court’s Orders could result in dismissal of his case.
Mr. Williams has not complied with the Court’s July 11, 2011 and August 8, 2011
Orders. The filing fee remains unpaid, and Mr. Williams has not submitted an application
to proceed in forma pauperis.

This case is dismissed, without prejudice, under Local Rule 5.5(c)(2), this 20th day
of September, 2011.
