 Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b)(1), plaintiff must pay the $350 filing fee required by 28 

U.S.C. § 1914(a). Plaintiff is assessed an initial partial filing fee of 20 percent of the greater of

preceding month’s income credited to his trust account. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b)(2). 

 The agency having custody of plaintiff is required to forward to the Clerk of the Court the 

initial partial filing fee, if funds exist, as well as payments from plaintiff’s account each time the 

amount in the account exceeds $10, until the filing fee is paid. Id.
