application to proceed in forma pauperis or pay the filing fee and his failure to file a

20

signed complaint, as he was ordered to do on March 9, 2017. (ECF No. 7.)

On June 12, 2017, Plaintiff submitted to the Court a stack of documents

signed by various individuals and numerous exhibits, including original documents and

24

photographs. The documents are assembled haphazardly and the Court is unable to
