Nature of Suit: Prisoner - Prison Condition
Cause of Action: 42:1983 Prisoner Civil Rights

---

The plaintiff failed to file an application for leave to proceed in forma pauperis, nor did 1

he submit the $350 filing fee. However, in light of the 1996 revisions to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 and under

the circumstances of this case, this court would make no ruling on the plaintiff’s in forma pauperis

status as the assessment and collection of any filing fee should be undertaken by the United States

District Court for the Southern District of Alabama.
