MEMORANDUM
AND ORDER

This matter is before the court on its own motion. The court dismissed this
matter on April 1, 2011, because Petitioner failed to pay the initial partial filing fee.
(Filing No. 7.) Petitioner thereafter requested reconsideration of the dismissal
because he believed he could pay the initial partial filing fee. (Filing No. 9 at
CM/ECF pp. 1-2.) The court declined to re-open the matter, but stated that “if
Petitioner submits the initial partial filing fee of $9.47 to the court no later than June
14, 2011, the court will re-open this matter.” (Filing No. 11.) Petitioner paid the
initial partial filing fee on May 25, 2011. However, this matter has remained closed
and Petitioner has taken no further action in this matter, and has not made any
additional filing fee payments. (See Docket Sheet.)
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that:
1.
Petitioner shall have until May 17, 2012, in which to inform the court
regarding whether this matter should be re-opened. In the event that Petitioner does
not file a response to this Memorandum and Order by that date, this matter will
remain closed and the court will take no further action.
2.
The Clerk of the court is directed to set a pro se case management
deadline in this matter with the following text: May 17, 2012: deadline for Petitioner

to submit response regarding whether he seeks to re-open matter.
DATED this 18th day of April, 2012.
BY THE COURT:
s/ Joseph F. Bataillon
United States District Judge
