ORDER

Petitioner, proceeding pro se, is a federal prisoner who filed pleadings which were construed
as a petition for habeas relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2241 and transferred to this court by the United States
District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. ECF No. 4. The pleadings failed to provide
sufficient information for initial review; therefore, this court issued an order directing Petitioner to
submit the documents necessary to bring the case into proper form for evaluation and possible service
of process. ECF No. 10. The order warned Petitioner that failure to provide the necessary information
within a specific time period would subject the case to dismissal. Petitioner did not respond to the
order and the time for response has lapsed. As Petitioner has failed to prosecute this case and has
failed to comply with an order of this court, the case is dismissed without prejudice pursuant to Rule
41 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. See Link v. Wabash R.R. Co., 370 U.S. 626 (1962).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
