NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOHNDELL HENDERSON,

Plaintiff,

v.

A. HEDGPETH, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 14-cv-01857-JST (PR) 

ORDER REOPENING ACTION; 

DIRECTING PLAINTIFF TO FILE 

COMPLETE IN FORMA PAUPERIS 

APPLICATION

On April 23, 2014, plaintiff filed this pro se civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 

§ 1983. On the same day the action was filed, plaintiff was ordered to file a complete application 

to proceed in forma pauperis ("IFP"), or pay the filing fee of $400.00, within 28 days, or face 

dismissal of the action. On June 12, 2014, the Court dismissed the action because plaintiff failed 

to pay the filing fee or file an IFP application within the deadline.

On June 18, 2014, plaintiff filed an "objection to dismissal" stating that he never received 

any document from the Court requiring him to pay a filing fee or file an IFP application. Plaintiff 

also represents that he submitted an IFP application as an attachment to his complaint. Plaintiff is 

advised that the Court has not received an IFP application to date. Accepting as true plaintiff's 

statements that he attempted to file an IFP application with his complaint and that he never 

received a deficiency notice, the action is hereby REOPENED. The order of dismissal (Docket 

No. 6) is VACATED.

United States District Court

Northern District of California

Plaintiff still needs to file a complete IFP application. Plaintiff is GRANTED 28 days 

from the date of this order to do so. If a complete application is not filed or the filing fee of $400

not paid, within 28 days, this case will be dismissed.

The Clerk of the Court shall provide plaintiff with a new prisoner IFP application.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: June 24, 2014
