LEONARD HOGG, et al. DEFENDANTS

ORDER Plaintiff Gregory Michael Perry filed a pro se complaint pursuant to

while incarcerated in the Lincoln County jail (Doc. No. 2), and was subsequently granted leave to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP) pursuant to

(a) (Doc. No. 4). On October 26, 2023, Perry notified the Court of a new free-world address indicating that he had been released from custody (Doc. No. 55). On October 30, 2023, the Court ordered Perry to submit the remainder of the $350.00 filing fee or file a fully completed and signed IFP application reflecting his free- world financial status within 30 days (Doc. No. 56). Perry was cautioned that failure to comply with the Court’s order within that time would result in the dismissal of his case, without prejudice, pursuant to Local Rule 5.5(c)(2). More than 30 days have passed, and Perry has not complied or otherwise responded to the October 30 order. Accordingly, Perry’s complaint should be and hereby is 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,

(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). The Defendants’ motion for summary judgment (Doc. No. 57) is denied as moot. IT IS SO ORDERED this 4th day of December, 2023.
