ORDER

This matter comes before the court on the memorandum and recommendation (“M&R”) of
United States Magistrate Judge Robert B. Jones Jr., wherein it is recommended that the court dismiss
the case upon frivolity review under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1915(e)(2)(B) (DE 4). Plaintiff did not file
objections thereto; however, the clerk received a money order for payment of filing fees in this
matter. Given the recommendation in the M&R, the court returned the payment of filing fees to
plaintiff, and directed plaintiff to show cause, within 21 days why the case should not be dismissed
for the reasons stated in the M&R. The court warned plaintiff that if he does not pay the filing fee
or otherwise respond to the show cause order, the clerk may close this case without further order of
the court. Upon careful review of the record in this case, the court determines that the case should
be dismissed for the reasons stated in the M&R and due to plaintiff’s failure to respond to the show
cause order. Accordingly, this matter is DISMISSED and the clerk is DIRECTED to close this case.
SO ORDERED, this the 1st day of December, 2017.
