BRIAN KEITH WRIGHT, Plaintiff v. CITY OF LAS VEGAS, Defendant
ORDER
I. DISCUSSION
On May 23, 2023, this Court issued an order granting Plaintiff until July 21,2023, to either pay the full $402 filing fee for a civil action or to submit a fully complete application to proceed in forma pauperis with all three required documents. (ECF No. 5). Plaintiff submitted a document stating that he is being transferred to another prison and cannot sign or file any documents. (ECF No. 6-1).
For good cause shown, the Court extends the deadline until August 30, 2023, to either pay the full $402 filing fee or file a fully complete application to proceed in forma pauperis with all three required documents.
II. CONCLUSION
It is therefore ordered that Plaintiff has until August 30, 2023, to either pay the full $402 filing fee or file a fully complete application to proceed in forma pauperis with all three required documents: (1) a completed application with the inmate's two signatures on page 3, (2) a completed financial certificate that is signed both by the inmate and the prison or jail official, and (3) a copy of the inmate's trust fund account statement for the previous six-month period.
Plaintiff is cautioned that this action will be subject to dismissal without prejudice if Plaintiff fails to timely comply with th is order. A dismissal without prejudice allows Plaintiff to refile the case with the Court, under a new case number, when Plaintiff can file a complete application to proceed in forma pauperis or pay the required filing fee.
The Clerk of the Court is directed to send Plaintiff Brian Wright the approved form application to proceed in forma pauperis for an inmate and instructions for the same.
