ORDER ON MOTION

Plaintiff seeks reconsideration of the court’s Order and Recommendation of the

Magistrate Judge entered May 9, 2007, which recommended dismissal of his complaint

pursuant to the directives of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). In support of his motion, Plaintiff

conclusorily asserts that if this case is dismissed his “life will be in imminent danger of

serious physical injury.” (Doc. No. 4.)

As noted in the May 9 Order and Recommendation, the undersigned has carefully

reviewed the claims presented in the instant action. Plaintiff complains about the manner

in which his medical concerns are being addressed and that he is charged a co-pay for

medical services and prescriptions. The claims before this court do not allege nor in any way

indicate that Plaintiff “is under imminent danger of serious physical injury” as is required to

meet the imminent danger exception to the application of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). Medberry

v. Butler, 185 F.3d 1189 (11th Cir. 1999). Plaintiff’s bare assertion in his pending motion

that his life is in imminent danger of serious physical injury is insufficient to meet the

exception to the “three strikes” provision of § 1915(g).

Accordingly, it is 

ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motion for Reconsideration (Doc. No. 4) be and is hereby

DENIED.

Done, this 22nd day of May 2007.
