Case No. 1:14-cv-01028 DLB PC

ORDER DISMISSING ACTION FOR 

FAILURE TO PAY FILING FEE

[ECF No. 29]

Plaintiff Rodney Brown, # AT-6806, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, filed this civil 

rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 on June 26, 2014, along with a motion for leave to 

proceed in forma pauperis.1 On July 17, 2014, the Court granted Plaintiff’s motion to proceed in 

forma pauperis. On June 5, 2015, the Court determined that Plaintiff was subject to 28 U.S.C. § 

1915(g), which provides that “[i]n no event shall a prisoner bring a civil action . . . under this 

section if the prisoner has, on 3 or more prior occasions, while incarcerated or detained in any 

facility, brought an action or appeal in a court of the United States that was dismissed on the 

grounds that it is frivolous, malicious, or fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, 

unless the prisoner is under imminent danger of serious physical injury.” The Court therefore 

revoked Plaintiff’s in forma pauperis status, and directed Plaintiff to pay the filing fee in full or 

 

1 On August 11, 2014, Plaintiff consented to the jurisdiction of the Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c).

suffer dismissal. Plaintiff was granted thirty (30) days to comply. Over thirty (30) days have 

passed and Plaintiff has not paid the filing fee.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the action is DISMISSED for failure to pay

the filing fee. 

This terminates this action in its entirety.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
