August 25, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 7 ORDER: Because Plaintiff has failed to cure her outstanding filing deficiencies-or sought an extension of time to do so-and her current address is unknown, this case cannot proceed. As a result, the Court finds that the civil-rights complaint must be dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute. So ordered. Judgment will be entered accordingly. All relief not expressly granted is denied, and any pending motions are denied. Plaintiff is admonished that if she refiles her complaint, she must file it on the approved form and either pay the full filing fee of $402.00 or file an application to proceed in forma pauperis and a certificate of her inmate trust account.
