ANDREW AVILA, Plaintiff, v. FELDER, et al., Defendants.
ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS RECOMMENDING DENIAL OF PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS (DOC. NOS. 2, 7) TWENTY-ONE (21) DAY DEADLINE
Plaintiff Andrew Avila is a state prisoner proceeding pro se in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
Plaintiff initiated this action on October 13, 2021, together with a motion requesting leave to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. (Doc. Nos. 1, 2.) Plaintiff filed a prisoner trust fund account statement on October 20, 2021. (Doc. No. 5.)
On October 20, 2021, the magistrate judge issued findings and recommendations that plaintiff's application to proceed in forma pauperis be denied and that plaintiff be required to pay the $402.00 filing fee in full to proceed with this action because he is able to afford the costs of this action. (Doc. No. 7.) Those findings and recommendations were served on plaintiff and contained notice that any objections thereto were to be filed within fourteen (14) days after service. (Id. at 2.) No. objections have been filed, and the deadline to do so has expired.
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. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the court concludes that the magistrate judge's findings and recommendations are supported by the record and proper analysis.
Accordingly, 1. The findings and recommendations issued on October 20, 2021, (Doc. No. 7), are adopted in full;
3. In accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g), plaintiffs application to proceed in forma pauperis, (Doc. No. 2), is denied; and
4. Within twenty-one (21) days following the date of service of this order, plaintiff shall pay the $402.00 filing fee in full to proceed with this action. If plaintiff fails to pay the filing fee within the specified time, this action will be dismissed without further notice.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
