ORDER OF DISMISSAL

Plaintiff, Willie Dwayne Clark, is a state prisoner incarcerated at the Saguaro
Correctional Center in Eloy, Arizona. On March 3, 2014, Plaintiff initiated this action by
filing pro se several documents regarding his prison classification and placement. In an
order entered on March 5, 2014, Magistrate Judge Boyd N. Boland directed Plaintiff to

file his claims on the Court-approved form used in filing prisoner complaints and
directed Plaintiff to submit a Prisoner’s Motion and Affidavit for Leave to Proceed
Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. Magistrate Judge Boland warned Plaintiff that the action
would be dismissed without further notice if he failed to cure the deficiencies within thirty
days.
In a minute order entered on March 19, 2014, Magistrate Judge Boland granted
Plaintiff an extension of time to cure the deficiencies and directed the Clerk of the Court
to send Plaintiff the Court-approved forms for filing a prisoner complaint and § 1915
motion and affidavit. Plaintiff, however, has failed to submit a request to proceed
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 or a prisoner complaint on the Court-approved forms.
The action will be dismissed because Plaintiff has failed to comply with the Court’s
orders within the time allowed.
The Court also certifies pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from
this Order is not 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 Plaintiff files a notice of appeal he must pay the full $505.00 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.
Accordingly, it is
ORDERED that the action is dismissed without prejudice pursuant to Fed. R. Civ.
P. 41(b) for failure to cure deficiencies and for failure to prosecute. It is
FURTHER ORDERED that leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal is
denied. It is

2

FURTHER ORDERED that all pending motions are denied as moot.
DATED at Denver, Colorado, this 25th day of

April

, 2014.
