ORDER

Plaintiff, Jeffery J. Grimes, a pro se litigant, filed this civil rights action against the
defendants. By order issued June 12, 2017, Plaintiff was provided an opportunity to submit the
documents necessary to bring the case into proper form for evaluation and possible service of
process. (ECF No. 5.) Plaintiff was warned that failure to provide the necessary information within
a specific time period would subject the case to dismissal. Plaintiff did not respond to the Order and
the time for response has lapsed. Plaintiff has failed to prosecute this case and has failed to comply
with an order of this Court. Therefore, 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). In light
of the dismissal of this matter, Plaintiff’s motion for a preliminary injunction and motion for a
temporary restraining order are terminated as moot. (ECF No. 2.)
IT IS SO ORDERED.
