MICHAEL CAPRA,

JOHN GLEESON, United States District Judge:
On June 8, 2015, petitioner, Teon Brummel, proceeding pro se, submitted this petition
seeking a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. His submission, however, did not
include the filing fee or a request to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP”). By Order dated July 1,
2015, I granted petitioner’s request to file an amended petition and gave him until August 31,
2015 to submit both an amended petition and either the $5.00 filing fee or an IFP request.
Petitioner did not comply with that order. Given his pro se status and the strict filing
requirements of federal habeas law, by Order dated November 9, 2015, I granted Petitioner
additional time, until December 15, 2015, to comply with the filing requirements and to file an
amended petition. The Order further stated that “[i]f the court does not receive petitioner’s IFP
application or filing fee by December 15, 2015, the petition will be dismissed without prejudice.”
Petitioner has not complied with the filing requirements and the time for doing so has passed.
Accordingly, the action is dismissed without prejudice.
So ordered.
