(VARLAN/SHIRLEY)
TENNESSEE DEPT. OF CORRECTIONS, et al.,
Defendants.
MEMORANDUM
This is a pro se civil rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. ยง 1983. Plaintiff filed the
complaint while in the custody of the Tennessee Department of Correction; he has since been
released from custody. Because plaintiff did not pay the $350.00 filing fee nor submit an
application to proceed in forma pauperis, plaintiff was given thirty days to pay the filing fee
or to submit the proper documents to proceed in forma pauperis. The plaintiff has failed to
respond to the Court's Order within the time required. Accordingly, this action will be
DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE for failure to prosecute and to comply with the Orders
of the Court. See McGore v. Wrigglesworth, 114 F.3d 601, 605 (6th Cir. 1997).
The Court will CERTIFY that any appeal from this action would not be taken in good
faith and would be totally frivolous. See Rule 24 of the Federal Rules of Appellate
Procedure.
AN APPROPRIATE ORDER WILL ENTER.
