(Judge Caputo)
WARDEN SPAULDING,

Respondent

MEMORANDUM
THE BACKGROUND OF THIS ORDER IS AS FOLLOWS:
On April 9, 2017, Petitioner, John Oscar Kalu, a federal inmate formerly housed
atthe Allenwood Federal Correctional Institution in White Deer, Pennsylvania, filed this

prose civil action for habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. (ECF No. 1.)
On May 8, 2017, the Court denied Mr. Kalu's request to proceed without prepayment
of the $5.00 filing fee as he had sufficient funds in his inmate account to pay the fee.

See ECF No. 6, Order. Mr. Kalu was directed to pay the filing fee within twenty-one
days of the Court's order or his action would be dismissed without prejudice. (Id.)
The deadline has passed and Mr. Kalu has neither submitted the filing fee nor
requested an extension of time in which to do so. Consequently, Mr. Kalu's petition for
writ of habeas corpus will be dismissed without prejudice.
An appropriate Order will follow.
