UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF MINNESOTA Stephan Nicholas Holmes, Case No. 24-cv-2879 (JWB/DJF) Plaintiff, v. REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION County of Ramsey, Ramsey County Correctional Health, Ramsey County Sheriff’s, Kristen, Rodriguez, Vanvraahen, Jane Does 1–4, Jane Does 4–10, and John Does 1–14, Defendants.

On May 15, 2024, this Court issued an order requiring Plaintiff Stephan Nicholas Holmes to submit an initial partial filing fee of $12.00. (See ECF No. 3 at 2–3.) The Order gave Mr. Holmes until August 27, 2024, to pay this fee, failing which the Court would recommend dismissing this action without prejudice for failure to prosecute. (See id.) Mr. Holmes has not submitted the required fee; indeed, he has not communicated with the Court at all since filing this action. (See Docket.) Accordingly, this Court now recommends dismissing this action without prejudice under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b) for failure to prosecute. See, e.g., Henderson v. Renaissance Grand Hotel, 267 F. App’x 496, 497 (8th Cir. 2008) (per curiam) (“A district court has discretion to dismiss an action under Rule 41(b) for a plaintiff’s failure to prosecute, or to comply with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure or any court order.”).

RECOMMENDATION Based upon the foregoing, and on all of the files, records, and proceedings herein, IT IS RECOMMENDED that this action be DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b) for failure to prosecute.

Dated: September 4, 2024 s/ Dulce J. Foster DULCE J. FOSTER United States Magistrate Judge NOTICE Filing Objections: This Report and Recommendation is not an order or judgment of the District Court and is therefore not appealable directly to the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals.
