On April 22, 2010, the Court issued an order directing Plaintiff to submit an in forma pauperis application or pay the filing fee for this action. (Doc. #3.) The order was mailed to Plaintiff and was later returned to the Court as undeliverable because Plaintiff refused delivery of the mail containing the order.

Accordingly, it is HEREBY RECOMMENDED that this action be dismissed for Plaintiff's failure to pay the filing fee. These Findings and Recommendations are submitted to the United States District Judge assigned to the case, pursuant to the provisions of Title 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).
