1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 9 FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 10 11 MICHAEL LITTLETON, 12 13 14 15 Plaintiff, v. COUNTY OF SACRAMENTO, et al., Case No. 2:22-cv-00567-JDP (PC) ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF A FINAL EXTENSION OF TIME TO EITHER PAY THE FILING FEE OR FILE AN APPLICATION TO PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS Defendants. 16 17 On April 7, 2022, I denied plaintiff’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis and ordered 18 him to submit, within thirty days, either the $402 filing fee or a completed application for leave to 19 proceed in forma pauperis. ECF No. 6. On May 24, 2022, I granted plaintiff a thirty-day 20 extension of time to comply with that order. ECF No. 9. Plaintiff did not pay the filing fee or file 21 a completed in forma pauperis application by that deadline. Then, on August 30, 2022, I ordered 22 plaintiff to show cause within twenty-one days why this action should not be dismissed for failure 23 to pay the filing fee, failure to prosecute, and failure to comply with court orders. ECF No. 10. I 24 warned plaintiff that failure to comply with that order, would result in a recommendation that this 25 action be dismissed. Id. at 2. Plaintiff has filed to comply with that order. 26 27 In response, plaintiff has filed a motion for appointment of counsel. ECF No. 11. Given that plaintiff has yet to pay the filing fee, that motion will not be addressed at this time. Instead, I 28 1 1 will grant plaintiff a final opportunity to either pay the filing fee or submit an application to 2 proceed in forma pauperis. 3 Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that: 4 1. Plaintiff is directed to file a completed in forma pauperis application within fourteen 5 days of this order. 6 2. No further extensions will be granted absent a showing of extraordinary cause. 7 8 IT IS SO ORDERED. 9 Dated: 10 11 August 1, 2022 JEREMY D. PETERSON UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 2
