IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Civil Action No. 13-cv-00430-BNB
TIMOTHY DOYLE YOUNG,
Plaintiff,
v.
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Defendant.
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
Plaintiff, Timothy Doyle Young, is in the custody of the United States Bureau of
Prisons and currently is incarcerated at ADX in Florence, Colorado. Originally, Mr.
Young, acting pro se, initiated this action by filing a habeas petition and an amended
petition in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The
Northern District of California determined that the petition sets forth conditions of
confinement claims and is properly filed in the United States District Court for the
District of Colorado. The Northern District of California entered an order on January
18, 2013, that transferred the action to this Court.
In an order entered on February 19, 2013, Magistrate Judge Boyd N. Boland
instructed Mr. Young to submit his claims on a Court-approved form used in filing
prisoner complaints. Mr. Young also was instructed to submit to the Court a Prisoner’s
Motion and Affidavit for Leave to Proceed Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 and a certified
copy of his inmate trust fund account statement for the six months prior to the filing of
the instant action, if he desired to proceed in forma pauperis. Otherwise, he was
directed to pay the $350.00 filing fee prior to proceeding in this action.
After review of Mr. Young’s pleadings, the Court agrees that his claims properly
are asserted in a prisoner complaint. Mr. Young has failed to communicate with the
Court since the order entered on February 19, 2013. As a result, he has failed to submit
his claims on a Court-approved form used in filing prisoner complaints, and he has
failed either to pay the $350.00 filing fee in full or to submit a proper 28 U.S.C. § 1915
Motion and Affidavit along with a certified trust fund account statement for the six
months preceding the filing date of this action within the time allowed. The action,
therefore, will be dismissed.
The Court also certifies pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from
this Order is not taken in good faith, and in forma pauperis status is denied for the
purpose of appeal. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438 (1962). If Mr. Young
files a notice of appeal he must pay the full $455.00 appellate filing fee or file a motion
to proceed in forma pauperis in the Tenth Circuit within thirty days in accordance with
Fed. R. App. P. 24. Accordingly, it is
ORDERED that the action is dismissed without prejudice pursuant to Fed. R. Civ.
41(b) for failure to comply with the February 19, 2013 Order and cure deficiencies. It is
FURTHER ORDERED that leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal is
denied.
DATED at Denver, Colorado, this 29th day of
March , 2013.
