IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

CENTRAL DIVISION

RICKY ASHLEY PLAINTIFF

ADC #099718C

v. Case No. 4:20-CV-00285 BSM

J. THOMAS RAY DEFENDANT 

 

ORDER

Ricky Ashley’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis [Doc. No. 1] is denied. 

Ashley has received at least three strikes under the PLRA. See Ashley v. Moody, 4:18-

CV-00482 BRW (E.D. Ark. filed July 25, 2018); Ashley v. Moody, et al., 4:18-CV-00497

BSM (E.D. Ark. filed July 31, 2018); Ashley v. Moody., et al., 4:18-CV-00498 KGB (E.D.

Ark. filed July 31, 2018). Based on the allegations in his complaint [Doc. No. 2], it does not

appear that Ashley is in imminent danger of serious physical injury. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g).

Accordingly, this case is dismissed without prejudice. If Ashley would like to

continue with this case, he must first pay the filing fee of $400 to the clerk, noting the above

style and case number, within thirty days of the date of this order along with a motion to

reopen this case. Upon receipt of the full filing fee and his motion, this case will be reopened. 

An in forma pauperis appeal would not be taken in good faith.

IT IS SO ORDERED this 26th day of March 2020.
