UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SHAWN MAXWELL,

Plaintiff,

v.

LISA PACIONE, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:24-cv-00409-CDB

ORDER TO PAY FILING FEE IN FULL OR 

SUBMIT APPLICATION TO PROCEED IN 

FORMA PAUPERIS

30-DAY DEADLINE

Clerk of the Court to Serve IFP Application

Plaintiff Shawn Maxwell is proceeding pro se in this civil rights action filed pursuant to 

42 U.S.C. § 1983.

On April 8, 2024, the Clerk of the Court returned to Plaintiff a check remitted in 

satisfaction of filing fees because Plaintiff did not pay the correct fee. See (docket entry dated 

4/8/2024).

All parties instituting any civil action, suit or proceeding in a district court of the United 

States, except an application for writ of habeas corpus, must pay a filing fee of $405, unless 

payment of such fee is excused through the Court’s granting of a plaintiff’s application to proceed 

in forma pauperis. See 28 U.S.C. § 1914.1 Plaintiff has not paid the $405 filing fee or submitted 

an application to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. 

1

In addition to the $350 statutory fee, civil litigants must pay an additional administrative fee of 

$55. See 28 U.S.C. § 1914(a) (Judicial Conference Schedule of Fees, District Court Misc. Fee 

Schedule ⁋ 14 (eff. Dec. 1, 2023)). The additional $55 administrative fee does not apply to 

persons granted leave to proceed in forma pauperis.

Accordingly, it is HEREBY ORDERED that, within 30 days from the date of service of 

this Order, Plaintiff shall prepay the $405.00 filing fee in full OR submit the attached application 

to proceed in forma pauperis, completed and signed. Plaintiff’s failure to comply with this 

Order will result in a recommendation for dismissal of the action without further notice.

The Clerk of the Court is directed to provide Plaintiff with an in forma pauperis

application.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
