2 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 3 4 DISTRICT OF NEVADA *** 5 Arah Muaba Bey, 6 Case No. 2:22-cv-01661-CDS-VCF Plaintiff, 7 vs. Order to Administratively Close Case 8 Nevada Power Company, et al.,

9 Defendants.

10 Judge Silva ordered plaintiff to either file an in forma pauperis application on the Court’s 11 approved form or pay the filing fee by November 10, 2022. ECF No. 7. Plaintiff appealed Judge Silva’s 12 order, and I ordered that plaintiff could refile his IFP application, if appropriate, within thirty days after 13 14 his appeal to the Ninth Circuit is complete. ECF No. 12. On March 1, 2023, the Ninth Circuit dismissed 15 the appeal. ECF No. 13. Plaintiff has not filed an IFP application and the thirty day deadline to do so has 16 passed. Since plaintiff has not commenced this action, I order that this case be administratively closed. 17 ACCORDINGLY, 18 I ORDER that the Clerk of Court is directed to administratively CLOSE this case. 19 NOTICE 20 Pursuant to Local Rules IB 3-1 and IB 3-2, a party may object to orders and reports and 21 recommendations issued by the magistrate judge. Objections must be in writing and filed with the Clerk 22 of the Court within fourteen days. LR IB 3-1, 3-2. The Supreme Court has held that the courts of appeal 23 may determine that an appeal has been waived due to the failure to file objections within the specified 24 time. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 142 (1985). 25 This circuit has also held that (1) failure to file objections within the specified time and (2) failure to properly address and brief the objectionable issues waives the right to appeal the District
