ORDER

THIS MATTER is before the Court sua sponte.
On June 22, 2012, the Plaintiffs filed the present action and sought to
proceed without having to prepay the costs associated with prosecuting the
matter. [Docs. 1, 2]. On July 2, 2012, the Court found that the Plaintiffs had
sufficient resources from which to pay the filing fee for this action and denied
their Application. [Doc. 3]. The Plaintiffs were given thirty (30) days to pay
the required filing fee. The Plaintiffs further were warned: “Failure to pay the

required filing fee within the time required will result in the dismissal of
this action.” [Id. at 3]. More than thirty (30) days have now passed since the
entry of the Court’s Order, and the Plaintiffs have failed to pay the filing fee as
required.
Accordingly, IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that this case is hereby
DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Signed: August 13, 2012
