Trial Court Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS CENTRAL DIVISION

CHRIS LORD PLAINTIFF #173493 Case No: 4:21-cv-00873-JM-PSH HATTIE PARKER, e¢ al. DEFENDANTS ORDER Plaintiff Chris Lord filed a pro se complaint, pursuant to

42 U.S.C. § 1983

, on October 1, 2021 (Doc. No. 1). On October 4, 2021, the Court entered an order directing Lord to submit the full $402.00 filing and administrative fees or file a fully completed in forma pauperis application within 30 days. See Doc. No. 2. Lord was cautioned that failure to comply with the Court’s order within that time would result in the dismissal of his case. More than 30 days have passed, and Lord has not complied or otherwise responded to the October 4 order. Accordingly, the Court finds that this action should be dismissed without prejudice for failure to comply with Local Rule 5.5(c)(2) and failure to respond to the Court’s orders. See Miller v. Benson,

51 F.3d 166, 168

(8th Cir. 1995) (District courts have inherent power to dismiss sua sponte a case for failure to prosecute, and exercise of that power is reviewed for abuse of discretion). IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED THAT Lord’s complaint (Doc. No. 1) is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. DATED this 10th day of November, 2021. mi hE crac
