United States District Court

Northern District of California

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

PATRICK L. RICHARDSON,

Petitioner,

v.

JOHN DOE,

Respondent.

Case No. 19-cv-00399-WHO (PR) 

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

Petitioner Patrick L. Richardson has not complied with the Court’s orders to pay the 

$5.00 filing fee or file an application to proceed in forma pauperis, despite being given 

two reminders, extra copies of the required documents, and over three months in which to 

comply with these instructions. (Dkt. Nos. 3 and 8.) 

Accordingly, this federal civil rights action is DISMISSED (without prejudice) for 

failing to comply with the Court’s orders and for failing to prosecute, see Federal Rule of 

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

to reopen. Any such motion must contain either payment for the filing fee and a complete 

application to proceed in forma pauperis. 

The Clerk shall enter judgment in favor of respondent and close the file. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: May 9, 2019
