NICHOLAS ADDISON PLAINTIFF v. POINSETT COUNTY DETENTION CENTER and LARRY MILLS, Sheriff, Poinsett County DEFENDANTS
ORDER
Addison moves to proceed in forma pauperis in this § 1983 case; but he's a three-striker. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). Before filing this lawsuit, Addison had at least five cases dismissed for failing to state a claim. E.g., Addison v. Martin, 3:15-cv-1-JM; Addison v. Martin, 3:15-cv-91-DPM; Addison v. Martin, 3:15-cv-96-DPM; Addison v. Doe, 3:15-cv-121-DPM; and Addison v. Muse, 3:15-cv-133-JM. And nothing in his new complaint suggests he's in imminent danger of serious physical injury. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). His application to proceed in forma pauperis, No 1, is therefore denied.
Addison's complaint will be dismissed without prejudice. An in forma pauperis appeal from this Order and accompanying Judgment will not be taken in good faith. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3). If Addison wants to pursue this case, then he must pay $400.00 (the filing and administrative fees) and file a motion to reopen the case by 30 December 2015.
So Ordered.
