IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JONATHAN LEE RICHES,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-07-2711 FCD EFB P

vs.

DICK CLARK’S NEW YEAR 

ROCKIN’ EVE 2008, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

_______________________________/

Plaintiff, an incarcerated federal prisoner at the Williamsburg Federal Correctional

Institution (“FCI Williamsburg”) in Salters, South Carolina, has brought suit in this court against

the Dick Clark’s New Year Rockin’ Eve 2008, the Mummers parade, and the Rose Bowl.

 Plaintiff claims that Dick Clark caused him to have a massive stroke and the “Mummers

plan to fly a huge float of [him] starving in a prison cell, as onlookers tease [him] with carbs,”

among other fanciful allegations. 

Plaintiff has not filed an in forma pauperis application. The court will not proceed in the

absence of such an application. Plaintiff has two choices: (1) file such an application at which

time the court will assess a required installment payment of the $350 filing fee in each case; or

(2) file a dismissal of his claims which are obviously going to be dismissed by ruling in any

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

days;

2. The Clerk of the Court is directed to send to plaintiff a copy of the in forma pauperis

application used in this district. 

DATED: January 3, 2008.
