ORDER REQUIRING PLAINTIFF TO FILE 

CORRECT APPLICATION TO PROCEED 

IN FORMA PAUPERIS OR PAY FILING 

FEE WITHIN FORTY-FIVE DAYS

Plaintiff is a former federal prisoner proceeding pro se in this civil action pursuant to 

Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Federal Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388, 91 S.Ct. 

1999 (1971), which provides a remedy for violation of civil rights by federal actors. Plaintiff 

initiated this action on March 20, 2015. In addition to the complaint, Plaintiff filed an 

application to proceed in forma pauperis, along with a notice of change of address. According to 

the notice of change of address, Plaintiff was to be released from federal custody to immigration. 

The address provided was for Plaintiff’s wife, Teresa Martinez, in Rosemead, California. (ECF 

No. 3.) 

On April 21, 2015, the Court directed Plaintiff to file a regular civil application to 

proceed in forma pauperis based on Plaintiff’s address in Rosemead, California. (ECF No. 9.) 

On May 29, 2015, Plaintiff filed a regular civil application to proceed in forma pauperis. 

According to the application, Plaintiff is detained in the Otero Detention Center. (ECF No. 12.) 

Information from Plaintiff’s wife indicates that Plaintiff is housed in the Otero Detention 

Processing Center in New Mexico. (ECF No. 10.)

As Plaintiff is currently detained, Plaintiff must submit the correct application to proceed 

in forma pauperis authorizing deductions from his trust account. Neither of Plaintiff’s current 

applications include such authorization. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Within forty-five (45) days from the date of service of this order, Plaintiff shall 

file the attached application to proceed in forma pauperis, completed and signed, or in the 

alternative, pay the $400.00 filing fee for this action;

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

3. The failure to comply with this order will result in dismissal of this action without 

prejudice.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
