AMENDED ORDER DIRECTING PLAINTIFF TO CURE DEFICIENCIES
Plaintiff, Elrader Browning, Jr., is a prisoner in the custody of the Federal Bureau of Prisons who currently is incarcerated at the United States Penitentiary, Administrative Maximum, in Florence, Colorado. He has submitted pro se a Prisoner Complaint (ECF No. 1). As part of the court's review pursuant to D.C.COLO.LCivR 8.2, the court has determined that the complaint is deficient as described in this order. Plaintiff will be directed to cure the following if he wishes to pursue his claims.
It has come to the Court's attention that the filing fee listed in the order to cure of May 8, 2013, listed an incorrect filing fee of $350.00. See ECF No. 5 at 2. Effective May 1, 2013, a general administrative fee of $50.00 for filing a civil action, suit, or proceeding in federal court increased the former $350.00 filing fee to a total of $400.00. This amended order corrects that incorrect reference. Any papers that Plaintiff files in response to this order must include the civil action number noted above in the caption of this order.
