ORDER OF DISMISSAL

This matter comes before the Court on the Order to Show Cause [Docket No. 4]
issued by the Court on August 14, 2012. In the August 14 order, the Court concluded
that plaintiff’s filings fail to adequately invoke the Court’s federal question jurisdiction.
The Court noted, however, that the complaint contains information indicating that the
Court may be able to exercise diversity jurisdiction, but that there is insufficient
information in the complaint to assure the Court that such is the case. Therefore, the
Court ordered plaintiff to show cause on or before Friday, August 24, 2012 why this
case involves a dispute between citizens of different states and should not be
dismissed for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. Plaintiff did not file any response to the
Court’s order. Therefore, it is
ORDERED that, for the reasons provided in the Court’s Order to Show Cause

[Docket No. 4], this case is dismissed for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.

DATED August 29, 2012.
BY THE COURT:
