Potter, 513 F.3d 781, 782 (7th Cir. 2008). This case is considered dismissed without prejudice. The Clerk is DIRECTED to CLOSE this case in CM/ECF. No filing fee is assessed for this action because Thompson never intended to file it. No additional action remains for the undersigned Judge to take. Signed by Judge J. Phil Gilbert on 10/4/2021.
