June 12, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 5 NOTICE OF IMPENDING DISMISSAL: Plaintiff was ordered to affirmatively notify the Court whether he wanted to proceed with this case or voluntarily dismiss it (Doc. 4). Plaintiff was also warned that his failure to respond would result in this case being dismissed without prejudice (Doc. 4) and the imposition of the $350.00 filing fee. Id. The deadline for responding has expired and the Court has not heard from Plaintiff. Plaintiff will be given an additional 30 days (on or before July 13, 2020) to advise the Court in writing whether he wishes to proceed with this lawsuit. If he chooses to go forward, the Court will assess an initial partial filing fee (if appropriate) and screen the complaint. On the other hand, if Plaintiff opts to voluntarily dismiss the case by the deadline, he will not have to pay a filing fee, the Court will not screen the complaint, and the case will be dismissed without prejudice. Plaintiff is WARNED that if he fails to respond to this Order by the deadline, he will be obligated to pay the full filing fee and this action will be dismissed for want of prosecution and/or for failure to comply with a court order. The Clerk is DIRECTED to send Plaintiff a copy of the Order at Doc. 4. (Action due by 7/13/2020). Signed by Judge J. Phil Gilbert on 6/12/2020. (tjk)THIS TEXT ENTRY IS AN ORDER OF THE COURT.

May 1, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 4 ORDER: On 4/30/2020, this case was severed from Brown v. St. Clair County Jail, et al, SDIL Case No. 19-cv-1394-JPG. Plaintiff should be aware of the consequences of proceeding with this action. First, the Court will screen the action pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1915A, and Plaintiff will incur a strike within the meaning of section 1915(g) if the Court determines that the action is frivolous or malicious, fails to state a claim on which relief may be granted, or seeks monetary relief against a defendant who is immune from such relief. Second, Plaintiff will be required to pay an additional $350.00 filing fee in this case. Of course, Plaintiff can also opt not to proceed with this action by voluntarily dismissing it, thereby avoiding the risk of a strike and the financial burden of an additional filing fee. Plaintiff should carefully consider these points, along with the merits and relative importance of this lawsuit, in deciding whether to proceed with it. Plaintiff shall have until June 5, 2020 to advise the Court in writing whether he wishes to proceed with this lawsuit. If he chooses to go forward, the Court will assess an initial partial filing fee (if appropriate) and screen the complaint. On the other hand, if Plaintiff opts to voluntarily dismiss the case by the deadline, he will not have to pay a filing fee, the Court will not screen the complaint, and the case will be dismissed without prejudice. Plaintiff is WARNED that if he fails to respond to this Order by the deadline, he will be obligated to pay the full filing fee and this action will be dismissed for want of prosecution and/or for failure to comply with a court order. (Action due by 6/5/2020). Signed by Judge J. Phil Gilbert on 5/1/2020. (tjk)THIS TEXT ENTRY IS AN ORDER OF THE COURT. NO FURTHER DOCUMENTATION WILL BE MAILED.
