ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE

This case is assigned to the Honorable Zack Hawthorn, United States Magistrate Judge, for pre-trial management. On July 20, 2017, Judge Hawthorn entered a report ("Report," Doc. No. 6) recommending the court deny pro se Plaintiff Jody Wayne Pickett's "Motion to Proceed In Forma Pauperis." (Doc. No. 2). The Plaintiff did not object to the Report within fourteen days of receipt. On August 18, 2017, Plaintiff filed his "Motion for Extension of Time to Answer or Respond." (Doc. No. 8). Judge Hawthorn interpreted this motion as a request to allow Plaintiff to file an objection to the Report outside of the fourteen day time period allowed by the Report. (Doc. No. 9, at 1). Judge Hawthorn granted the Plaintiff's motion for an extension, and Plaintiff was allowed an extension to object to the Report until September 1, 2017. (Id. at 1). The court has not received an objection to the Report from the Plaintiff, and the time for doing so has passed.

It is, therefore, ORDERED that Judge Hawthorn's "Report and Recommendation" (Doc. No. 6) is ADOPTED, and the Plaintiff's "Motion to Proceed In Forma Pauperis" (Doc. No. 2) is DENIED. It is further ORDERED that the Plaintiff must pay the $400 filing fee within fifteen (15) days of the receipt of this order or the case will be dismissed.

So Ordered.
