 )

TO: THE DIRECTOR OF THE ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS.

Plaintiff Ralph Slusher, #184468, presently confined in Arizona State Prison Complex in

Douglas, Arizona, has been assessed a filing fee of $150.00 for this action pursuant to 28 U.S.C.

§ 1915(b)(1). An Order to collect the filing fee was previously issued to the Maricopa County

Sheriff. See Order (Doc. #4). Plaintiff has since been transferred to the custody of the Arizona

Department of Corrections, and none of the filing fee has been collected. Therefore, the $150.00

balance of the fee must be collected from the inmate’s trust account now held by the ADOC. 

Plaintiff is obligated to make monthly payments in the amount of 20 percent of the preceding

month’s income credited to Plaintiff’s trust account. The Director of the Arizona Department of

Corrections is required to forward these payments from Plaintiff’s trust account to the Clerk of the

Court each time the amount in the account exceeds $10.00, until the balance of the statutory filing

fee is paid in full. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b)(2).
