IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Civil Action No. 12-cv-01470-BNB
WILLIAM LEE LORNES THE III, also known as
WILLIAM LEE LORNES,
Plaintiff,
v.
CARPENDER,
Defendant.
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
Plaintiff, William Lee Lornes the III, also known as William Lee Lornes, currently
is incarcerated at the Denver Van Cise-Simonet Detention Center. The caption of this
order has been corrected to include his alias. Mr. Lornes submitted to the Court pro se
on June 5, 2012, in a large manilla envelope a number of loose papers, which the Court
attempted to organize. The papers were divided into seven lawsuits, one of which is the
instant action. In this action, Mr. Lornes submitted a Prisoner Complaint.
The Court reviewed the Prisoner Complaint, and determined it was deficient.
Therefore, on June 7, 2012, Magistrate Judge Boyd N. Boland directed Mr. Lornes to
cure certain enumerated deficiencies in the case within thirty days if he wished to
pursue his claims.
The June 7 order pointed out that Mr. Lornes failed to submit a Prisoner’s Motion
and Affidavit for Leave to Proceed Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 and a certified copy of
his trust fund account statement for the six-month period immediately preceding this
filing obtained from the appropriate prison official. Subsection (a)(2) of 28 U.S.C. §
1915 requires submission of "a certified copy of the trust fund account statement (or
institutional equivalent) for the prisoner for the 6-month period immediately preceding
the filing of the complaint . . . obtained from the appropriate official of each prison at
which the prisoner is or was confined." The June 7 order and the Prisoner’s Motion and
Affidavit for Leave to Proceed Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 note this requirement.
The June 7 order warned Mr. Lornes that, if he failed to cure the designated
deficiencies within thirty days, the action would be dismissed without prejudice and
without further notice. On June 15, 2012, Mr. Lornes submitted a certified copy of his
trust fund account statement as of June 21, 2012 (ECF No. 4). On July 6, 2012, he
submitted a certified copy of his trust fund account statement as of July 2, 2012 (ECF
No. 5). On July 9, 2012, he submitted an uncertified copy of his trust fund account
statement as of June 21, 2012 (ECF No. 6). However, he failed within the time allowed
to cure all the designated deficiencies by submitting a Prisoner’s Motion and Affidavit for
Leave to Proceed Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. Therefore, the complaint and the
action will be dismissed without prejudice for failure to cure all the designated
deficiencies as directed within the time allowed.
Finally, the Court certifies pursuant to § 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from this
order would not be taken in good faith and therefore in forma pauperis status will be
denied for the purpose of appeal. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438
(1962). If Mr. Lornes files a notice of appeal he must also pay the full $455 appellate
filing fee or file a motion to proceed in forma pauperis in the United States Court of
Appeals for the Tenth Circuit within thirty days in accordance with Fed. R. App. P. 24.
2
Accordingly, it is
ORDERED that the complaint and the action are dismissed without prejudice
pursuant to Rule 41(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for the failure of Plaintiff,
William Lee Lornes the III, within the time allowed, to cure all the deficiencies
designated in the order to cure of June 7, 2012. It is
FURTHER ORDERED that the clerk of the Court is directed to add the alias,
William Lee Lornes, to the docketing records for this case. It is
FURTHER ORDERED that leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal is
denied.
DATED at Denver, Colorado, this
19th day of
July
, 2012.
