ORDER
Jones moves to proceed in forma pauperis in this§ 1983 case. But Jones
is a three-striker under the Prison Litigation Reform Act. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g).
He has filed more than three cases that were dismissed as frivolous or for
failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted. Jones v. Banks, 2:95cv-17-HW; Jones v. Roberson, 5:96-cv-123-JMM; Jones v. Correctional Medical
Services,5:03-cv-87-SWW; Jones v. Does,4:05-cv-1092-SWW. And he does not
fall within the exception to the three-strikes provision because he does not
allege that he is in imminent danger of serious physical injury. 28 U.S.C. §
1915(g).

within thirty days of the entry of this Order: (1) pay the full statutory filing fee
