Therefore, IT IS ORDERED this 11th day of December 2012, that the Clerk of Court is
to mark this case closed and,
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the petitioner may reopen the case by paying the
$5.00 filing fee or submitting an informa pauperis request AND a certified copy his inmate
account statement for the previous six (6) months, within twenty days of this date.
