No. C 15-3970 RS (PR)

 ORDER OF DISMISSAL

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SAN FRANCISCO DIVISION

HOWARD YOUNG,

Petitioner,

v.

M.D. BITER, 

Respondent.

 /

No. C 15-3970 RS (PR)

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

Petitioner has failed to comply with the Court’s order to pay the filing fee by the

deadline. Though petitioner asserts he asked the prison to send the fee, the Court has no

record of receiving payment. He also has not filed a complete application to proceed in

forma pauperis (“IFP”). Accordingly, this habeas action is DISMISSED without prejudice

for failure to respond to the Court’s order and for failure to prosecute under Federal Rule of

Civil Procedure 41(b). Because this dismissal is without prejudice, petitioner may move to

reopen the action. Any motion to reopen must contain (1) a properly completed IFP

application, or (2) full payment for the filing fee. 

His motion to extend time to pay the fee (Docket No. 19) is DENIED. The Clerk shall

terminate Docket No. 19, enter judgment in favor of respondent and close the file. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: March___, 2016
