ORDER SECOND JUDICIAL COURT, et al., Defendants. On October 13, 2016, Plaintiff Ray Dean Wilson filed a document which was liberally construed as a civil rights complaint but he did not pay the filing fee or file a motion to proceed in forma pauperis.

Wilson's Complaint has not been filed, it was simply 1 lodged with the Court. ACCORDINGLY, the Clerk of Court is directed to close this matter. DATED this ~day ofNovember, 2016. Je ah C.
