ORDER
Plaintiff James E. Patterson, an Arkansas Department of Correction (“ADC”)
inmate filed this lawsuit under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and is proceeding in forma pauperis.
(Docket entries #1 and #3)
Mr. Patterson’s original Complaint failed to provide the Court with enough facts to
determine whether he could state a constitutional claim for relief. For that reason, he was
ordered to file an Amended Complaint within thirty days. Mr. Patterson has not filed an
amended complaint, as ordered, despite being warned that failing to comply with the
order could result in dismissal of his case. (#3)
Accordingly, this case is DISMISSED, without prejudice, under Local Rule
5.5(c)(3), this 24th day of August, 2012.
