UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JIMMY GETTINGS,

Plaintiff,

v.

CHRIS LINK, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:15-cv-2688 MCE CKD PS

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

By order filed January 6, 2016, plaintiff was granted twenty-eight days in which to submit 

the appropriate fees to the Clerk of Court. Plaintiff was cautioned that failure to pay the filing 

and general administrative fees in the amount of $400 would result in a recommendation that the 

action be dismissed. Plaintiff has submitted another application to proceed in forma pauperis 

indicating that he has incurred medical expenses but does not indicate whether these expenses 

recur on a monthly basis. Whether or not these medical expenses are incurred monthly, however, 

in light of plaintiff’s monthly income and his low cost of living where he resides in the 

Phillippines, plaintiff has made an inadequate showing of indigency. Plaintiff has not paid the 

requisite fees and has not otherwise responded to the court’s order.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED that:

1. Plaintiff’s motions to proceed in forma pauperis (ECF Nos. 2, 5) be denied; and

2. This action be dismissed without prejudice. See Local Rule 110; Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b).
