SAN JOSE DIVISION

DEANNA RAE PORTER-WEESE-HEFT,

Plaintiff,

v.

HELLS ANGELS MOTORCYCLE SAN 

JOSE CHAPTER,

Defendant.

Case No. 15-cv-03201-BLF 

ORDER SETTING DEADLINE FOR 

PAYMENT OF FILING FEE

On July 10, 2015, Plaintiff filed the complaint in this action along with an application to 

proceed in forma pauperis. On August 20, 2015, the then-assigned magistrate judge issued an 

order denying Plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis as incomplete. See Order 

Denying Without Prejudice Plaintiff’s Application to Proceed In Forma Pauperis, ECF 8. The

order stated expressly that the denial was without prejudice and it granted Plaintiff fourteen days 

to file a renewed application to proceed in forma pauperis. Id. Plaintiff did not file a renewed 

application within the time provided and still has not filed a renewed application.

Plaintiff therefore must pay the filing fee of $400.00 if she wishes to proceed with this 

case. If Plaintiff does not pay the filing fee on or before October 27, 2015, the case will be 

dismissed without prejudice under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). See Fed. R. Civ. P. 

41(b) (providing for dismissal if plaintiff fails to prosecute action or to comply with the Federal 

Rules of Civil Procedure or a court order); Madden v. Badgett, 122 F.3d 1072 (Table), 1997 WL 

556361, at *1 (9th Cir. Aug. 29, 1997) (affirming dismissal of action under Rule 41(b) where 

plaintiff failed to pay the filing fee or to submit prison trust account statement); Soto v. Hayes, No.
