ORDER TO CURE DEFICIENCY
The Court has received the complaint in the above-captioned action. The case is deficient.
To correct this deficiency, you must either pay the filing fee of $405, OR file an Application to Proceed Without Prepayment of Fees (form enclosed).
THE FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE FOREGOING WITHIN TWENTY-ONE (21) DAYS WILL RESULT IN THE DISMISSAL OF THIS ACTION WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE.
