                          PER CURIAM.

                           ORDER
     William Oscar Harris moves for leave to proceed in
 forma pauperis.
     Harris is currently incarcerated. Pursuant to the
 Prison Litigation Reform Act (PLRA), a prisoner is barred
 from proceeding in forma pauperis if three or more prior

 2                                   HARRIS    v. US

 actions or appeals have been dismissed as frivolous or
 malicious or for failure to state a claim:
       In no event shall a prisoner bring a civil action or
       appeal a judgment in a civil action or proceeding
       under this section if the prisoner has, on 3 or
       more prior occasions, while incarcerated or de-
       tained 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.
 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g).
      The court notes that three or more actions or appeals
 filed by Harris have been dismissed as frivolous, as mali-
 cious, or for failure to state a claim. See Harris v. United
 States, No. 1:13-cv-00879-UNA (D.D.C. June 11, 2013);
 Harris v. United States, No. 2:13-cv-214-WTL-MJD (S.D.
 Ind. July 15, 2013); Harris v. Fed. Bureau of Prisons, No.
 1:13-cv-01144-UNA (D.D.C. July 29, 2013). Moreover,
 Harris has not suggested that he is in imminent danger of
 serious physical injury.
       Accordingly,
       IT IS ORDERED THAT:
    If Harris does not pay the $455 filing fee within 30
 days of the date of this order, his appeal will be dismissed.
