IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO
EASTERN DIVISION
BRANDON G. EDMONDS,
Plaintiff,
vs.

Case No.: 2:16-cv-921
JUDGE GEORGE C. SMITH
Magistrate Judge Jolson

LICKING COUNTY, et al.,
Defendants.

ORDER
On January 6, 2017, the United States Magistrate Judge issued a Report and
Recommendation recommending this case be dismissed for want of prosecution. (Doc. 3). On
September 27, 2016, Plaintiff was ordered to pay the $400.00 filing fee or file an application to
proceed in forma pauperis within thirty days, and further notified that failure to do so would
result in dismissal of this case for want of prosecution. (Doc. 2). Because Plaintiff failed to do
as ordered, the Magistrate Judge now recommends that this case be dismissed. The parties were
specifically advised of their right to object to the Report and Recommendation and of the
consequences of their failure to do so. There has nevertheless been no objection to the Order
and Report and Recommendation.
Accordingly, the Report and Recommendation is hereby ADOPTED and AFFIRMED.
Plaintiff’s Complaint is hereby dismissed for want of prosecution. The Clerk shall remove
Document 3 from the Court’s pending motions list and close this case.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
