IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Civil Action No. 14-cv-00678-BNB
MAZEN J. KHERDEEN,
Plaintiff,
v.
BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA, et al.,
Defendants.
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
Plaintiff, Mazen J. Kherdeen, initiated this Bivens action on March 4, 2014. On
March 6, 2014, the Court entered an Order Directing Plaintiff to Cure Deficiencies.
(ECF No. 4). The action was dismissed on April 15, 2014 for the Plaintiff’s failure to
comply with the March 6 Order, but was reinstated on June 4, 2014, for good cause
shown.
On June 12, 2014, Magistrate Judge Boyd N. Boland issued an order directing
Mr. Kherdeen to cure deficiencies within thirty (30) days of the Order. (ECF No. 18).
Magistrate Judge Boland instructed Plaintiff to attempt to obtain a certified copy of his
account statement from prison officials at the San Diego facility where he is presently
incarcerated, and to submit an authorization for disbursement of funds from his inmate
account to pay the filing fee. Plaintiff was informed that the necessary form was
attached to the Prisoner’s Motion and Affidavit for Leave to Proceed Pursuant to 28
U.S.C. § 1915 on the Court’s website at www.cod.uscourts.gov. Magistrate Judge
Boland warned Plaintiff that if he failed to cure the designated deficiencies within thirty
days from the June 12 Order, and failed to show good cause for the same, the action
would be dismissed without further notice. Plaintiff was also warned that if was unable
to obtain a certified copy of his inmate account statement from prison officials, he must
file a document with the Court detailing his specific efforts to comply with the June 12
Order and the specific actions of named individuals who refused to provide him with a
certified copy of his inmate account statement.
On June 16, 2014, Mr. Kherdeen filed a “Notice of Identified Defendants Under
John Doe 1 to 1000 and Jane Doe 1-1000" (ECF No. 20), but he has now failed to
comply in whole or in part with the June 12 Order. Accordingly, it is
ORDERED that this action is DISMISSED without prejudice pursuant to Rule
41(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for the failure of Plaintiff, Mazen J.
Kherdeen, to comply with the June 12, 2014 order directing him to cure deficiencies. It
is
FURTHER ORDERED that leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal is
denied for the purpose of appeal. The Court certifies pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
§ 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from this order would not be taken in good faith. See
Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438 (1962). If Mr. Kherdeen files a notice of
appeal he must also pay the full $505 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. It is
FURTHER ORDERED that all pending motions are DENIED as moot.
DATED at Denver, Colorado, this 22nd day of
July
, 2014.
