IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

PINE BLUFF DIVISION

WILLIAM F. CARADINF/ASSABUR
ADC # 90785

v.

PLAINTIFF

No.5:12-cv-74-DPM-BD

CONNIE HUBBARD, Health Care
Administrator, Varner Unit, ADC

DEFENDANT

ORDER
Caradine/ Assabur, an inmate at the Varner Supermax Unit of the
Arkansas Department of Correction, filed a pro se complaint under § 1983 and
moved to proceed in fonna pauperis. Document Nos. 1 & 2. The Court denied
Caradine/ Assabur's motion based on the "three strikes" provision of the
Prison Litigation Reform Act. 28 U.s.C. § 1915(g). Barring an exception, he
is no longer eligible to proceed in forma pauperis because of his litigation
history. The Court thus ordered Caradine/ Assabur to pay the $350.00
statutory filing fee within thirty days. Document No.4.
Caradine/ Assabur has not paid the filing fee and his thirty-day
deadline passed on 23 March 2012. The Court, in its earlier order, specifically

cautioned Caradine/ Assabur that his failure to pay the filing fee by the
deadline would result in dismissal of his claims. Document No.4. The Court
therefore dismisses Caradine/ Assabur's complaint, Document No.2, without
prejudice. Local Rule 5.5(c)(2).
So Ordered.
