JESSE L. YOUNGBLOOD, Plaintiff, v. D. URIBE, et al. Defendants.
ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS TO DENY PLAINTIFF'S APPLICATION TO PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS, AND REQUIRE PAYMENT OF THE FILING FEE (ECF Nos. 2, 10, 11)
THIRTY (30) DAY DEADLINE
Jesse L. Youngblood ("Plaintiff") is a state prisoner proceeding pro se in this civil rights action filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The matter was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.
On August 23, 2017, Plaintiff filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis. (ECF No. 2). On January 26, 2018, the Magistrate Judge issued findings and recommendations recommending that Plaintiff's application to proceed in forma pauperis be denied, and that Plaintiff be required to pay the $400 filing fee. (ECF No. 10). The findings and recommendations were served on Plaintiff, and contained instructions that any objections thereto must be filed within thirty days.
On February 15, 2018, Plaintiff filed, "Ex Parte Motion for I the (Petitioner/Appellant) in Pursuant to Ca. Penal Code P.C. (s)2601,967,422.75,1007,1009,1404,166,1253,102,1108, and 9,132 et. seq.: and Fed. R. Civ. P. 60 and 60(a) Federal Local Rules: and F.R.A.P. (3d) 'I Rubuke/Rebuttal [sic] as Waiver Estoppel' and/or 'Objections to Magistrate Judge's Findings and/or Recommendations.'" (ECF No. 11). That filing is best read as objections to the Magistrate Judge's findings and recommendations.
In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636 (b)(1)(C), this Court has conducted a de novo review of the case. None of Plaintiff's objections provide a legal basis on which to question the Magistrate Judge's findings and recommendations. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the Court concludes that the Magistrate Judge's findings and recommendations are supported by the record and by proper analysis.
Based on the foregoing,
1. The Findings and Recommendations filed on January 26, 2018, (ECF No. 10), are adopted in full;IT IS SO ORDERED. Dated: April 13, 2018
2. Plaintiff's application to proceed in forma pauperis, (ECF No. 2), is denied;
3. To the extent Plaintiff's objections, (ECF No. 11), are to constitute a motion for relief, it is denied; and
4. Within thirty (30) days from the date of service of this order, Plaintiff shall pay the $400 filing fee or the action will be dismissed.
