DIJON MALIK BOYD, Plaintiff, v. ERIC STAFFORD, et al., Defendants.
ORDER
[Docket No. 26]
Nancy J. Koppe United States Magistrate Judge
Pending before the Court is Plaintiff's motion for order for service by the United States Marshal Service. Docket No. 26. Plaintiff's motion is premature, as the initial filing fee has not yet been paid and his complaint has not been screened. See Docket. As set forth in the Court's prior order granting Plaintiff's application to proceed in forma pauperis, the Court will screen his complaint after it has received his initial partial filing fee of $13.16. See Docket No. 23 at 1. Accordingly, the Court DENIES without prejudice Plaintiff's motion for service. Docket No. 26.
The Court will extend Plaintiff's deadline to pay his initial partial filing fee to September 16, 2022. The Court further INSTRUCTS the Clerk to mail a copy of this order and the order at Docket No. 231 to the inmate accounts department at Southern Desert Correctional Center, P.O. Box 208, Indian Springs, Nevada 89070. Failure to pay the partial filing fee by September 16, 2022 will result in a recommendation to the District Judge that this case be dismissed.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
