Plaintiff Brent A. Castleman (“Castleman”) was in State custody at the James River
Correctional Center in Jamestown, North Dakota, when he initiated this action in October 2021.
(Doc. No. 1-2). He was subsequently released and is presently residing in Minot, North Dakota.
(Doc. No. 8). Although he had been released, the court screened his pleadings pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
§ 1915A. Concluding that his pleadings were devoid of any cognizable constitutional claims, the
court issued an order on March 28, 2022, giving him until April 25, 2022, to file an amended
complaint or otherwise show cause why this matter should not be dismissed. (Doc. No. 12). At his
request, the court extended his show cause deadline until May 26, 2022. (Doc. No. 14).
To date Castleman has failed to file an amended complaint or otherwise show cause why this
matter should not be dismissed without prejudice. 	Accordingly, for the reasons articulated in its
order of March 28, 2022, the above-captioned action is DISMISSED with prejudice.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated this 29th day of August, 2022.
