ORDER DIRECTING PLAINTIFF TO PAY THE REQUIRED FILING FEE OR COMPLETE AN APPLICATION TO PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS
MATTHEW F. LEITMAN, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
On April 15, 2021, Plaintiff Jose Olivares filed this civil-rights action against the Defendants. (See Compl., ECF No. 1.) When Olivares filed his Complaint, he neither paid the required filing fee nor submitted an application to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP”). The Court thereafter issued a deficiency notice to Olivares informing him that he had failed to pay the required fee. (See Dkt.) To date, Olivares has still not paid the filing fee or submitted a signed IFP application to the Court.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, by no later than August 30, 2021 , Olivares shall either (1) pay the required filing fee or (2) file a completed and signed IFP application with the Court. For Olivares' convenience, the Court will include a blank IFP application when it mails him a copy of this order.
If Olivares fails to comply with this order, the Court will dismiss this action without prejudice.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
I hereby certify that a copy of the foregoing document was served upon the parties and/or counsel of record on July 20, 2021, by electronic means and/or ordinary mail.
