IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF UTAH
LONNIE NORTON,
Plaintiff,

MEMORANDUM DECISION &
DISMISSAL ORDER

v.
TOOELE COUNTY SHERIFF et al.,
Defendants.

Case No. 2:14-CV-763-RJS
District Judge Robert J. Shelby

Plaintiff, Lonnie Norton, filed this pro se civil-rights suit, see 42 U.S.C.S. § 1983 (2017).
Reviewing the Complaint under § 1915(e), in an Order dated November 15, 2016, the Court
determined Plaintiff's Complaint was deficient. The Court then gave Plaintiff directions for
curing the deficiencies, sent him a "Pro Se Litigant Guide," with a blank-form civil rights
complaint, and ordered him to cure the deficiencies within thirty days.
Plaintiff has never responded to the order. The Court last heard from Plaintiff on March
31, 2015, when he filed an account statement and a notice of inability to pay his initial partial
filing fee (which was received on January 5, 2015).

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Plaintiff's Complaint is DISMISSED for failure
to state a claim under § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii), follow the Court’s Order, and to prosecute his case,
see DUCivR 41-2. This case is CLOSED.
DATED this 13th day of April, 2017.
BY THE COURT:

JUDGE ROBERT J. SHELBY
United States District Court
