Civil Action No. 3:15CV535-HEH

MEMORANDUM OPINION
(Dismissing Action Without Prejudice)
By Memorandum Order entered on October 30, 2015, the Court directed Plaintiff
to pay an initial partial filing fee of$40.32 or state under penalty of perjury that he did
not have sufficient assets to pay such a fee within eleven ( 11) days of the date of entry
thereof. See 28 U .S .C. § l 9 l 5(b )(I). Plaintiff has neither paid the initial partial filing fee
nor averred that he cannot pay such a fee. Therefore, Plaintiff is not entitled to proceed

informa pauperis. Plaintiffs disregard of the Court's directives warrants dismissal of
the action. Accordingly, the action will be dismissed without prejudice.
An appropriate Order shall accompany this Memorandum Opinion.
