Aaron Jones has initiated this pro se complaint without paying the filing fee or petitioning to proceed in forma pauperis. If Jones would like to proceed with this lawsuit, he must either pay the $405 filing fee or submit an application to proceed without prepaying fees or costs within thirty days, or his case will be dismissed without prejudice. See Local Rule 5.5(c)(2).
Additionally, Jones is directed to amend his complaint. Doc. No. 1. While the complaint is written in the first person and signed by Jones, it lists three plaintiffs making it confusing as to who is bringing the claims. See id. at 1, 5. If Jones wants to proceed with this lawsuit, he must amend his complaint within thirty days of this order explaining how the named defendants violated only his constitutional rights. Failure to timely amend his complaint will result in the dismissal of this lawsuit.
