NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MARY D. WILSON,

Plaintiff,

v.

STATE OF MONTANA, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 18-cv-07231-DMR 

REQUEST FOR REASSIGNMENT TO 

DISTRICT JUDGE AND REPORT AND 

RECOMMENDATION TO DISMISS 

COMPLAINT AND TO DENY MOTION 

FOR RECONSIDERATION AS MOOT

Pro se Plaintiff Mary Wilson filed a complaint and an application for leave to proceed in 

forma pauperis (“IFP”). [Docket Nos. 1, 3.] Since all parties have not consented to the jurisdiction 

of a magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c), the undersigned issues this Report and 

Recommendation and reassigns the case to a district judge for final disposition, with the 

recommendation that the action be dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute.

On November 21, 2018, Ms. Wilson filed a motion to seal the entire case. [Docket No. 4.] 

On November 27, 2018, the Honorable Beth Labson Freeman denied the motion in her role as 

general duty judge. [Docket No. 5.] On December 11, 2018, the undersigned denied Ms. Wilson’s 

IFP application and ordered her to pay the entire filing fee of $400.00 by no later than December 

28, 2018. [Docket No. 7.] The court warned Ms. Wilson that “[f]ailure to make payment by the 

date(s) specified will result in dismissal of the above-entitled action without prejudice.” Id. Ms. 

Wilson filed a motion for reconsideration on the motion to seal on December 28, 2018, but has not 

paid the filing fee as of the date of this order. [Docket No. 9.] 

Due to Ms. Wilson’s failure to pay the filing fee, the court recommends that her action be 

dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute. The court further recommends that Ms. 

Wilson’s motion for reconsideration be denied as moot. The Clerk is directed to reassign this case 

to a district judge. Any party may file objections to this report and recommendation with the district
