8 Defendants.

9 10 On August 3, 2021 Plaintiff filed a proposed complaint with the Clerk of Court (ECF No. 1- 11 1), but did not submit an in forma pauperis application or pay the $402 filing fee. Under 28 U.S.C. 12 § 1915(a)(1) and U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada Local Rule LSR 1-1, if Plaintiff is 13 “unable to prepay the fees in a civil case” he may apply to proceed in forma pauperis. The 14 application must be submitted on the form provided by the Court and “include a financial affidavit 15 disclosing the applicant’s income, assets, expenses, and liabilities.” LSR 1-1. 16 On August 11, 2021, this Court issued an Order providing Plaintiff through October 8, 2021 17 to “complete an application to proceed in forma pauperis” or “pay the full $402 fee for filing.” ECF 18 No. 3 at 2. The Court also instructed the Clerk of Court to send Plaintiff the application to proceed 19 in forma pauperis for non-incarcerated litigants. Id. at 1. The Court explained that if Plaintiff failed 20 to comply with the Order, it would recommend dismissal of this case without prejudice. Id. at 2. As 21 of the date of this Recommendation, Plaintiff has not filed an in forma pauperis application or paid 22 the $402 filing fee. 23 Therefore, and based on the foregoing history in this case, IT IS HEREBY 24 RECOMMENDED that this matter be dismissed without prejudice. 25 Dated this 13th day of October, 2021.

26 ELAYNA J. YOUCHAH 27 UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE 1 NOTICE 2 Pursuant to Local Rule IB 3-2, any objection to this Finding and Recommendation must be 3 in writing and filed with the Clerk of the Court within fourteen (14) days. In 1985, the Supreme 4 Court held that the courts of appeal may determine that an appeal has been waived due to the failure 5 to file objections within the specified time. Thomas v. Arn,

(1985). The Ninth 6 Circuit has also held that (1) failure to file objections within the specified time and (2) failure to 7 properly address and brief the objectionable issues waives the right to appeal the District Court’s 8 order and/or appeal factual issues from the order of the District Court. Martinez v. Ylst,

(9th Cir. 1991); Britt v. Simi Valley United Sch. Dist.,

, 454 (9th Cir. 1983).
