What follows is an opinion from the Supreme Court of the United States. Your task is to identify whether administrative action occurred in the context of the case prior to the onset of litigation. The activity may involve an administrative official as well as that of an agency. To determine whether administration action occurred in the context of the case, consider the material which appears in the summary of the case preceding the Court's opinion and, if necessary, those portions of the prevailing opinion headed by a I or II. Action by an agency official is considered to be administrative action except when such an official acts to enforce criminal law. If an agency or agency official "denies" a "request" that action be taken, such denials are considered agency action. Exclude: a "challenge" to an unapplied agency rule, regulation, etc.; a request for an injunction or a declaratory judgment against agency action which, though anticipated, has not yet occurred; a mere request for an agency to take action when there is no evidence that the agency did so; agency or official action to enforce criminal law; the hiring and firing of political appointees or the procedures whereby public officials are appointed to office; attorney general preclearance actions pertaining to voting; filing fees or nominating petitions required for access to the ballot; actions of courts martial; land condemnation suits and quiet title actions instituted in a court; and federally funded private nonprofit organizations.

Opinion:
WRENN v. BENSON et al.
No. 88-6494.
Decided April 17, 1989
Together with No. 88-6497, Wrenn v. Department of Mental Health of Ohio, also on motion for leave to proceed informa pauperis.
Per Curiam.
On March 27, 1989, we denied pro se petitioner Curtis Wrenn’s request to proceed in forma pauperis under this Court’s Rule 46.1 in filing petitions for certiorari in Wrenn v. Benson and Wrenn v. Ohio Dept. of Mental Health, 489 U. S. 1095. Since October Term 1986, petitioner has filed 22 petitions for certiorari with the Court. We denied him leave to proceed informa pauperis with respect to 19 of those petitions, and he paid the docketing fee required by this Court’s Rule 45(a) on one occasion. He also filed one petition for rehearing.
This Court’s Rule 46.1 requires that “[a] party desiring to proceed in this Court informa pauperis shall file a motion for leave to so proceed, together with his affidavit in the form prescribed in Fed. Rules App. Proc., Form 4 . . . setting forth with particularity facts showing that he comes within the statutory requirements.” Our decision to deny a petitioner leave to proceed in forma pauperis is based on our review of the information contained in the supporting affidavit of indigency. In petitioner’s case, a review of the affidavits he has filed with his last nine petitions for certiorari indicates that his financial condition has remained substantially unchanged. The Court denied him leave to proceed informa pauperis with respect to each petition. Petitioner has nonetheless continued to file for leave to proceed in forma pauperis.
In In re McDonald, 489 U. S. 180, 184 (1989), we said: “Every paper filed with the Clerk of this Court, no matter how repetitious or frivolous, requires some portion of the institution’s limited resources. A part of the Court’s responsibility is to see that these resources are allocated in a way that promotes the interests of justice. ” We do not think that justice is served if the Court continues to process petitioner’s requests to proceed informa pauperis when his financial condition has not changed from that reflected in a previous filing in which he was denied leave to proceed informa pauperis.
We direct the Clerk of the Court not to accept any further filings from petitioner in which he seeks leave to proceed informa pauperis under this Court’s Rule 46.1, unless the affidavit submitted with the filing indicates that petitioner’s financial condition has substantially changed from that reflected in the affidavits submitted by him in Wrenn v. Benson and Wrenn v. Ohio Dept. of Mental Health, 489 U. S. 1095 (1989).
It is so ordered.
