ORDER

Plaintiff BRIAN EDENFIELD, an inmate at Wheeler Correctional Facility, filed
the instant pro se civil rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (Doc. 1). On January
9, 2013, the Court granted Plaintiff’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis and ordered
him to pay an initial partial filing fee of $5.00 (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 February 1, 2013, the
Court gave Plaintiff an additional 14 days in which to pay the $5.00, show good cause
for his failure to pay, or voluntary dismiss this action (Doc. 8). Plaintiff moved for an
extension of time, which the Court granted by Text Order dated February 19, 2013.
Although the Court gave Plaintiff another 21 days to pay the fee, to date he has not
done so. Because of Plaintiff’s failure to comply with the Court’s instructions, his
lawsuit is hereby DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
SO ORDERED, this 18th day of March, 2013.
S/ Marc T. Treadwell
MARC T. TREADWELL, JUDGE
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
