UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

IN RE JOSEPH P. LAVERY,

Plaintiff, 

Case No. 15-cv-5577-TEH 

ORDER OF DISMISSAL 

This case was opened when Plaintiff wrote a letter to the 

Court regarding prison conditions. In an effort to protect his 

rights, it was filed as a new case. Plaintiff was informed that 

he had not filed a complaint and was given twenty-eight days to 

do so. He also was sent a notice that he had not paid the filing 

fee or applied for leave to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP”); 

again, he was allowed twenty-eight days to either pay the fee or 

file the application. A copy of the Court’s form for 

applications to proceed IFP was provided with the notice, along 

with a return envelope. 

Plaintiff has filed a notice that he did not intend to 

initiate an action and seeks to dismiss this case. This case is 

therefore DISMISSED without prejudice pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 

41(a). No fee is due.
