JASON ROBERT WAY,

Petitioner,

v.

ATTORNEY GENERAL,

Respondent.

Case No. 16-cv-01467-JCS (PR) 

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

Dkt. No. 7

Petitioner has failed to comply with the Court’s order to (1) perfect his application 

to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP”), or (2) pay the full filing fee of $5.00. His IFP 

application is incomplete because it does not contain a Certificate of Funds. Petitioner has 

also failed to file a petition using this Court’s form. Accordingly, the action is 

DISMISSED without prejudice for failing to respond to the Court’s order, and for failure 

to prosecute, see Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b).1 

Because this dismissal is without prejudice, petitioner may move to reopen the 

action. Any such motion must contain (1) a Certificate of Funds or full payment for the

Petitioner has consented to magistrate judge jurisdiction. (Docket No. 5.) The magistrate 

judge, then, has jurisdiction to decide this motion, even though respondent has not been 

served or consented to magistrate judge jurisdiction. See Neals v. Norwood, 59 F.3d 530, 

532 (5th Cir. 1995)
