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.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
