No. 14-1081-JDT-egb

ORDER DIRECTING CLERK TO ENTER JUDGMENT
On March 30, 2015, the court entered an order of dismissal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§
1915(e)(2)(B)(ii) and 1915A(b)(1) but allowed Plaintiff thirty days in which to amend his
complaint to avoid a sua sponte dismissal under the Prison Litigation Reform Act of 1995
(“PLRA”), 28 U.S.C. § 1915. LaFountain v. Harry, 716 F.3d 944, 951 (6th Cir. 2013); see
also Brown v. R.I., No. 12-1403, 2013 WL 646489, at *1 (1st Cir. Feb. 22, 2013) (per
curiam) (“Ordinarily, before dismissal for failure to state a claim is ordered, some form of
notice and an opportunity to cure the deficiencies in the complaint must be afforded.”).
Plaintiff was advised that, if he failed to file an amended complaint within the time specified,
the Court would assess a strike pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g) and will enter judgment.
Plaintiff has not filed an amended complaint. Accordingly, the clerk is DIRECTED
to enter judgment in accordance with this order and the order of dismissal entered on March
30, 2015.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
