CIV F 05-0137 OWW LJO P

ORDER TO SUBMIT APPLICATION TO

PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS

OR FILING FEE

Plaintiff filed this action while incarcerated and is proceeding pro se in a civil rights

action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff did not pay the $150.00 filing fee, or submit an

application to proceed in forma pauperis on the appropriate form pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 upon

his initiation of the case.

On February 28, 2005 the court issued an Order requiring plaintiff to submit a

completed application to proceed in forma pauperis or pay the $150.00 filing fee. However, on

March 22, 2005, the post office returned the Order to the court marked “Unable to Forward.” On

March 22, 2005, the court re-served plaintiff at a new address plaintiff supplied to the court: 470 #B

Beech Lane, Lemoore, CA 93245. On April 1, 2005, the Orders served on plaintiff were again

returned to the court with a notation “Not Deliverable as Addressed.”

On April 25, 2005, (in case # 1:05-cv-0239 REC LJO P) plaintiff notified the court

he was released from custody and was now at 470 #B Brooks Lane, Lemoore, CA 93245. Due to

plaintiff’s release and the unresolved fee issue, it is necessary that plaintiff submit an application to

proceed in forma pauperis by a non-prisoner. Plaintiff will now be provided the opportunity to

submit a new application to proceed in forma pauperis by a non-prisoner or pay the $150.00 filing

fee. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The Clerk’s Office shall send to plaintiff the form for application to proceed in

forma pauperis for a non-prisoner;

2. Within THIRTY days of the date of service of this order, plaintiff shall submit a

completed application to proceed in forma pauperis for a non-prisoner, or in the alternative, pay

the $150 filing fee for this action. 

Plaintiff is forewarned that his failure to comply with this order will result in a

recommendation that this action be dismissed. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
