CURTIS RAY HARRIS, Plaintiff, v. DON HARIG, et al., Defendants.
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
Plaintiff, proceeding pro se in this civil matter, filed a motion to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP). (Dkt. 1.) Plaintiff indicates he is on a fixed income and receives Social Security benefits. However, he also indicates he has $1,000.00 in a checking account and $5,000.00 in a savings account. Because it appears plaintiff has the funds available to pay the filing fee, the Court recommends his motion to proceed IFP (Dkt. 1) be DENIED. This action should proceed only if plaintiff pays the $400.00 filing fee within thirty (30) days after entry of the Court's Order adopting this Report and Recommendation. If no filing fee is paid within thirty days of the Court's Order, the Clerk should close the file.
Objections to this Report and Recommendation, if any, should be filed with the Clerk and served upon all parties to this suit within fourteen (14) of the date on which this Report and Recommendation is signed. Failure to file objections within the specified time may affect your right to appeal. Objections should be noted for consideration on the District Judge's motions calendar for the third Friday after they are filed. Responses to objections may be filed within fourteen (14) days after service of objections. If no timely objections are filed, the matter will be ready for consideration by the District Judge on June 16 , 2017 .
DATED this 30th day of May, 2017.
