ORDER On July 28, 2020, Jessie Ray Freeman (“Plaintiff’), a prisoner in the Greene County Detention Center, filed a pro se Complaint pursuant to
42 U.S.C. § 1983. (Doc. 1). On July 29, 2020, the Court entered an Order in which it directed Plaintiff to either pay the $400 filing fee or file an application to proceed in forma pauperis. (Doc. 2). The Court warned Plaintiff that his failure to comply with the Order would cause his Complaint to be dismissed. (/d.). Plaintiff has not complied with or otherwise responded to the July 29, 2020 Order. Accordingly, Plaintiff's Complaint is DISMISSED without prejudice pursuant to Local Rule 5.5(c)(2) and Rule 41(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. See Link v. Wabash R.R. Co.,
370 U.S. 626, 630-31(1962) (district courts have power to dismiss sua sponte under Rule 41(b)). The Court certifies pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that an in forma pauperis appeal from the Order and Judgment dismissing this action would not be taken in good faith. IT IS SO ORDERED this 5th day of October 2020.
