IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS 

PINE BLUFF DIVISION 

MARVIN L. REEVES, 

ADC #119838 PLAINTIFF 

V. CASE NO. 5:19-CV-179-KGB-BD 

TRACY TAYLOR DEFENDANT

RECOMMENDED DISPOSITION 

I. Procedure for Filing Objections:

This Recommended Disposition (Recommendation) has been sent to Judge 

Kristine G. Baker. Mr. Reeves may file written objections to this Recommendation if he 

disagrees with its findings or conclusion. If objections are filed, they should be specific 

and should include the factual or legal basis for the objection. To be considered, 

objections must be received in the office of the Court Clerk within 14 days of this 

Recommendation. 

If no objections are filed, Judge Baker can adopt this Recommendation without 

independently reviewing the record. By not objecting, Mr. Reeves may waive any right to 

appeal questions of fact. 

II. Discussion:

Eric Lee Hall filed this civil rights lawsuit without the help of a lawyer on behalf 

of himself, Mr. Reeves, and Kenneth Moore. Each individual was provided an 

opportunity to litigate their claims in separate lawsuits. (Docket entry #1) Because Mr. 

Reeves did not file a complete in forma pauperis (IFP) application or pay the $350

statutory filing fee, however, the Court ordered him to do one or the other within thirty 

days of May 30, 2019. (#2) In the May 30 Order, the Court specifically cautioned Mr. 

Reeves that his claims could be dismissed, without prejudice, if he failed to satisfy the 

filing fee requirement. (#2) 

As of this date, Mr. Reeves has neither filed an updated IFP application nor paid 

the filing fee, as ordered. The time to do so has expired. 

III. Conclusion:

The Court recommends that Mr. Reeves’s claims be DISMISSED, without 

prejudice, based on his failure to comply with the Court’s May 30, 2019 Order and his 

failure to prosecute this lawsuit. 

DATED this 8th day of July, 2019.
