DANNY E. DELONEY,

NO. 5:13-CV-273 (MTT)

ORDER
Plaintiff DANNY E. DELONEY, an inmate at Georgia Diagnostic and Classification
Prison, filed a pro se civil rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. By Orders dated
September 3 and October 3, 2013 (Docs. 6 & 7), the Court directed Plaintiff to file his
complaint on the Court’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 form and to either pay the $350.00 filing fee or
submit a request to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP”). Shortly after the October 3 Order,
Plaintiff filed a motion to put his case “on hold for 180 days” (Doc. 8), which the Court
denied (Doc. 9). The Court instead instructed Plaintiff to either comply with the Court’s
Orders within 14 days or voluntarily dismiss his complaint and refile when he is ready to
proceed. Plaintiff was expressly informed that if he failed to comply with the Court’s
directive, his case would be dismissed.
As of today’s date, Plaintiff has still not filed his complaint using this Court’s
standard section 1983 form or moved to proceed IFP. Because Plaintiff has failed to
1

comply with this Court’s Orders, this lawsuit is hereby DISMISSED WITHOUT
PREJUDICE.
SO ORDERED, this 15th day of November, 2013.
