ALEXANDER HOWELL, Plaintiff, v. ASHLEY SKAGGS, et al., Defendants.
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
MATTHEW T. SCHELP, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
This matter is before the Court on pro se prisoner Alexander Howell's Motion for Leave to Proceed in Forma Pauperis. For the reasons recently explained at length by the Court in Howell v. Davis, 4:23-cv-687-RWS, 2023 WL 5528030 (E.D. Mo. Aug. 28, 2023), and Howell v. Paine, 4:23-cv-00465-SEP, 2023 WL 5333657 (E.D. Mo. Aug. 18, 2023), Plaintiff is subject to the three strikes rule under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). Therefore, the Court must deny Plaintiff's Motion for Leave to Proceed in Forma Pauperis, and the Court will enter a separate Order of Dismissal dismissing this action without prejudice.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff's Motion for Leave to Proceed in Forma Pauperis, Doc. [2], is DENIED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the issuance of a certificate of appealability is DENIED.
