JACKSON COUNTY PAROLE AND 

PROBATION BOARD, et al. DEFENDANTS 

 

ORDER

Plaintiff Ernest Terrell Friar, Jr. filed this pro se action without paying the $405 filing fee 

or submitting an application to proceed in forma pauperis.

1

 On October 30, 2024, the Court 

instructed Mr. Friar that, to proceed with this action, he must either pay the filing fee or submit a 

proper and complete application to proceed in forma pauperis within 30 days.2

 The Court also 

explained that, as a “three-striker,” Mr. Friar could proceed in forma pauperis only if he amended 

his complaint to clarify any allegations showing that he was in imminent danger of serious physical 

injury at the time he filed the complaint.3 The Court warned Mr. Friar that failure to respond to 

the Court’s Order would result in the dismissal of his case.4 

Mr. Friar has not complied with or otherwise responded to the October 30, 2024 Order, 

and the time for doing so has expired.5 Mr. Friar’s Complaint (Doc. 1) is therefore DISMISSED 

without prejudice pursuant to Local Rule 5.5(c)(2). The Court certifies, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 

1

 Compl. (Doc. 1).

the Court as undeliverable. See Doc. 7.
