SEAN E. MUSTILL, Plaintiff, v. SACRAMENTO COUNTY MAIN JAIL, et al., Defendants.
ORDER
CAROLYN K. DELANEY UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Plaintiff, a Sacramento County Jail prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a civil action. Plaintiff has not, however, filed a request to proceed in forma pauperis or paid the required filing fee of $350.00 plus the $52.00 administrative fee. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1914(a), 1915(a). Plaintiff will be provided the opportunity either to submit the appropriate request to proceed in forma pauperis or to submit the required fees totaling $402.00.
If leave to file in forma pauperis is granted, plaintiff will still be required to pay the filing fee but will be allowed to pay it in installments. Litigants proceeding in forma pauperis are not required to pay the $52.00 administrative fee.
In accordance with the above, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
1. Plaintiff shall submit, within thirty days from the date of this order, a request to proceed in forma pauperis on the form provided by the Clerk of Court, or the required fees in the
amount of $402.00; plaintiffs failure to comply with this order will result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed; and
2. The Clerk of the Court is directed to send plaintiff a new Application to Proceed In Forma Pauperis By a Prisoner.
