UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

AHKEEM DESHAVIER WILLIAMS,

Plaintiff,

v.

ROBERT H. STOVER, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:20-cv-00063-LJO-SAB

ORDER REQUIRING PLAINTIFF TO FILE 

APPLICATION TO PROCEED IN FORMA 

PAUPERIS OR PAY FILING FEE WITHIN 

THIRTY DAYS

Ahkeem Deshavier Williams (“Plaintiff”), a pretrial detainee, is appearing pro se in this 

civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On January 13, 2020, Plaintiff filed a complaint 

along with an application to proceed in forma pauperis by a prisoner. Plaintiff’s in forma 

pauperis application is not adequately completed. Plaintiff indicates that he receives disability 

payments, but did not include the amount that he receives. Further, Plaintiff is in the custody of 

the Kings County Jail and the certificate from the institution stating the amount of funds in his 

inmate account was issued November 25, 2019, almost two months ago. Plaintiff shall be 

required to complete an application to proceed without prepayment of fees that corrects these 

deficiencies.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The Office of the Clerk is directed to provide Plaintiff with an application to 

proceed in forma pauperis by a prisoner;

3. No extension of time will be granted without a showing of good cause; and

4. The failure to comply with this order will result in dismissal of this action, 

without prejudice.
