Plaintiff, proceeding pro se, filed this action in this court on August 3, 2012.1 By Order filed August
20, 2012, Plaintiff was given an opportunity to provide the necessary information and paperwork to bring the
case into proper form for evaluation and possible service of process. Plaintiff was warned that failure to
provide the necessary information within the timetable set forth in the Order would subject the case to
dismissal. The time to bring this case into proper form now has lapsed.
Plaintiff has failed to provide the necessary information and therefore has failed to comply with an
order of this court. This 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.
