ORDER

Petitioner, Nathan Scott, III, a pro se state pretrial detainee, filed this petition for a writ of
habeas corpus. By order issued October 19, 2017, Petitioner 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. 3.) Petitioner was warned 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. Petitioner 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).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
