CAPTAIN BAILEY, et al.

DEFENDANTS
ORDER

Plaintiff Ronny Slayton originally filed this action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 while
incarcerated at the Grimes Unit of the Arkansas Department of Correction (ADC) (Doc. No. 2). His
Motion to Proceed in this action in forma pauperis was granted by Order dated August 15, 2012
(Doc. No. 3). However, Slayton has notified the Court of a change in his address which reflects his
release from incarceration (Doc. No. 12). Therefore, in order to continue the prosecution of this
action, Slayton must file an updated Motion to Proceed in forma pauperis. In addition, he must file
a Response to Defendant’s Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings (Doc. No. 10). Accordingly,
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that Plaintiff Slayton shall file an updated Motion to
Proceed in forma pauperis within fifteen days of the date of this Order. Failure to file such shall
result in the dismissal without prejudice of Plaintiff’s Complaint. See Local Rule 5.5(c)(2). The
Clerk is hereby directed to forward an in forma pauperis application to Plaintiff.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff shall file a Response to Defendant Bailey’s
Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings (Doc. No. 10) within fifteen days of the date of this Order.

IT IS SO ORDERED this 28th day of November, 2012.
