UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JAMES SCOTT ALVA,

Plaintiff,

v.

STATE OF CALIFORNIA, et al.,

Defendant.

Case No. 1:24-cv-0686 JLT SKO

ORDER DISMISSING ACTION WITHOUT 

PREJUDICE FOR PLAINTIFF’S FAILURE TO 

PAY FILING FEE

On October 21, 2024, the Court found Plaintiff is subject to the three strikes bar of 28 

U.S.C. § 1915 and he was not in imminent danger of serious physical injury. (Doc. 19.) Despite 

the Court’s warning that failure to pay the filing fee would result in dismissal (id. at 2), Plaintiff 

failed to pay the required fee. Without such payment, the action cannot proceed before the Court. 

See Saddozai v. Davis, 35 F.4th 705, 709 (9th Cir. 2022). Thus, the Court ORDERS:

1. The action is DISMISSED without prejudice.

2. The Clerk of Court is directed to close this case. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: November 26, 2024
