SHAKOUR A. BROWN, Plaintiff, v. CAPT WALKER, et al., Defendants.
The Court's previous Order dated June 29, 2022, contained a typo in the amount of the filing fee.
Lisa Pupo Lenihan United States Magistrate Judge
The Plaintiff in this matter has submitted for filing a complaint without a filing fee or the forms required to proceed in forma pauperis in a civil rights case. This action may not proceed unless the Plaintiff either,
(1) tenders to the “Clerk, U.S. District Court” a statutory filing fee in the amount of $402.00, or,
(2) files a properly completed application to proceed in forma pauperis, along with an authorization form and a certified copy of his prison account statement for the six (6) months preceding the filing of the complaint.
Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED this 30th day of June, 2022 that the Clerk of Court mark this case CLOSED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Plaintiff may submit a motion to proceed in forma pauperis, along with a certified copy of the inmate account statement for the six (6) months preceding the filing of the complaint. If that motion is granted, the case will be reopened.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Plaintiff may also reopen this case by paying the $402.00 filing fee.
AND IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Plaintiff is allowed fourteen (14) days from this date to appeal this order to a District Judge pursuant to Rule 72.C.2 of the Local Rules. Failure to appeal within fourteen (14) days may constitute waiver of the right to appeal.
