RABEIO, Circuit Judge,
JOHNNY DUNIGAN,
DOE, District Attorney's Office

DEFENDANTS

ORDER
1. Bills moves to proceed in forma pauperis. NQ 1. But he's a three-

striker. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). Before filing this lawsuit, he had at least
four cases dismissed for failing to state a claim. E.g., Bills v. Blytheville

Water Work, 3:16-cv-48-KGB; Bills v. Ranney, 3:16-cv-282-BSM; Bills v.
Richardson, 3:17-cv-113-JM; Bills v. Whitfield, 3:17-cv-187-DPM. And
though Bills says he fears for his life, nothing else in his new complaint
shows he's actually in imminent danger of serious physical injury.
28U.S.C.§1915(g); Martin v. Shelton, 319F.3d1048, 1050 (8th Cir. 2003).
His motion to proceed in forma pauperis, NQ 1, is therefore denied.
2. Bills' s complaint will be dismissed without prejudice. If Bills

wants to pursue this case, then he must pay the $400 filing and
administrative fees and file a motion to reopen this case by
26 November 2017. An in forma pauperis appeal from this Order and

accompanying Judgment would not be taken in good faith. 28 U.S.C.
§ 1915(a)(3).

So Ordered.
