IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

PINE BLUFF DIVISION

TOMMY RAY MOSLEY PLAINTIFF

ADC #85548

v. Case No. 5:15-cv-00261 KGB/JTR

STEVE MILLER, Law Clerk

Maximum Security Unit, ADC, et al. DEFENDANTS

ORDER

Plaintiff Tommy Ray Mosley, an inmate with the Arkansas Department of Correction, 

has filed a pro se complaint (Dkt. No. 1), along with an application for leave to proceed in forma 

pauperis (Dkt. No. 6). Magistrate Judge J. Thomas Ray issued a recommended disposition 

finding that Mr. Mosley cannot proceed in forma pauperis because he is barred by the “three 

strikes” rule of the Prison Litigation Reform Act, and he does not qualify for the imminent 

danger exception (Dkt. No. 4). Mr. Mosely objected to the recommended disposition (Dkt. Nos. 

7, 8). 

The Court has reviewed the Recommended Disposition and the filed objections. After 

carefully considering these documents and making a de novo review of the record in this case, 

the Court approves and adopts the Recommended Disposition in its entirety as this Court’s 

findings in all respects. 

It is therefore ordered that:

1. Mr. Mosely’s motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis is denied (Dkt. No. 

6), and the Court dismisses without prejudice this case.

2. Should Mr. Mosley wish to continue to pursue this case and the claims he alleges, 

he must submit the statutory filing and administrative fees of $400.00 to the Clerk of the Court,

noting the above case style number, within 30 days of the entry date of this Order, along with a 

motion to reopen the case. Upon receipt of the motion and full payment, this case will be 

reopened.

3. It is certified, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3), that an in forma pauperis

appeal from this Order would not be taken in good faith.

4. All other pending motions are denied as moot (Dkt. Nos. 9, 10).

Dated this 4th day of January, 2016.
