ORDER

Plaintiff HIRAM H. FLOWERS, an inmate at the Bibb County Law Enforcement
Center, filed the instant pro se civil rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On
December 19, 2012, the Court granted Plaintiff’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis and
ordered him to pay an initial partial filing fee of $9.50 (Doc. 7). Plaintiff was originally
given 21 days to pay the fee and was expressly informed that if he failed to comply with
the Court’s directive, his case would be dismissed. By Order dated January 23, 2013,
the Court gave Plaintiff an additional 14 days in which to pay the $9.50, show good cause
for his failure to pay, or voluntarily dismiss this action (Doc. 8).
To date, Plaintiff has failed to pay the fee or otherwise respond to either of this
Court’s Orders. Such failure suggests that Plaintiff may no longer be interested in
prosecuting this case. Plaintiffs complaint is therefore DISMISSED WITHOUT
PREJUDICE.
SO ORDERED, this 12th day of February, 2013.
S/ Marc T. Treadwell
MARC T. TREADWELL, JUDGE
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
