MEMORANDUM ORDER
This Court's March 9, 2017 memorandum opinion and order (the "Opinion"), coupled
with an Appendix that (1) summarized the prior litigation history of pro se prisoner plaintiff
Thomas Ryburn ("Ryburn") and (2) reported that he had previously accumulated more than the
three "strikes" that brought 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g) into play, granted Ryburn the opportunity to pay
the filing fee for this most recent lawsuit in full on or before March 29, failing which he faced
the dismissal of this action. But the current printout of the docket in this action reflects that
instead of paying any heed to that shot fired across his litigation bow, Ryburn simply filed the
attached nonresponsive letter -- dated March 23 and received in the Clerk's Office on
March 27 -- coupled with several pages of documents that did not speak to the subject of the
required fee at all. Accordingly, as forecast in the final paragraph of the Opinion, this action is
indeed dismissed for want of prosecution.

Date: March 30, 2017
