Before the Court is the Magistrate Judge's R-&- ort and
T
Recommendation (Doc. 4), to which objections have been
filed (Doc. 6). In his report and recommendation, the
Magistrate Judge recommends that the case be dismissed for
lack of prosecution due to Plaintiff's failure to complete
and return the appropriate Prison Litigation Reform Act
("PLRA") paperwork. (Doc. 4 at 1.) However, Plaintiff
states in his objections that he attempted to complete the
paperwork, but the forms provided by the Court were lost by
prison personnel. (Doc. 6 at 1.) Plaintiff now requests
that the Court resend the forms necessary for him to
proceed in this case.
After careful consideration,

the Court

3.) Plaintiff shall have thirty days to complete and return
the necessary forms. Failure to comply with this order by
June 20, 2015 shall result in the dismissal of Plaintiff's

case without prejudice.
SO ORDERED this

day of May 2015.
