UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

GLEN GARY GRAY, III,
Plaintiff,
Civil Action No. 17-1750 (RDM)

v.
FEDERAL BUREAU OF PRISONS,
Defendant.

MEMORANDUM OPINION
Federal inmate Glen Gray, proceeding pro se, brought this action against the Federal
Bureau of Prisons. In an earlier Order, the Court concluded that Gray’s complaint “d[id] not
allege any facts that would allow the Court to discern the substance of Gray’s claims or to
determine whether, if true, his allegations would entitle him to relief,” and thus failed to
comply with Rule 8(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Dkt. 5 at 2 (citing Brown v.
Wash. Metro. Area Transit Auth., 164 F. Supp. 3d 33, 35 (D.D.C. 2016)). The Court sua
sponte dismissed Gray’s complaint without prejudice and granted him leave to file an amended
complaint that complied with the dictates of Rule 8 and 12(b)(6). Id. Gray’s amended
complaint was due on or before November 15, 2017. Id. More than two weeks have elapsed
since that deadline, and the Court has received neither a response to its previous Order nor an
amended pleading. It appears that Gray no longer intends to prosecute his case. Accordingly,

the Court will dismiss this action and direct the Clerk of Court to terminate this case.
A separate order will issue.
