LUIS RAMON NATIVIDAD, Plaintiff, v. THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF THE COUNTY OF BERNALILLO, et al, Defendants.
ORDER TO CURE DEFICIENCIES
This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff's Letter Regarding Civil Rights Claims (Doc. 1) (Letter). Plaintiff is incarcerated and proceeding pro se. The Letter indicates he wishes to file a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 civil rights complaint. On July 19, 2023, the Clerk's Office sent Plaintiff a blank § 1983 complaint and motion to proceed in forma pauperis. Plaintiff must return the completed complaint within thirty (30) days of entry of this Order. By the same deadline, Plaintiff must also prepay the $402 filing fee or, alternatively, file an in forma pauperis motion along with an inmate account statement reflecting transactions for a six-month period. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2). All filings should include the case number (No. 23-cv-0606-JCH-KRS). The failure to timely comply with both directives may result in dismissal of this case without further notice.
IT IS ORDERED that within thirty (30) days, Plaintiff must: (1) file a complaint on the § 1983 form; and (2) prepay the $402 filing fee or submit an in forma pauperis motion that attaches an account statement reflecting transactions for a six-month period.
