19

$350.00 plus the $55.00 administrative fee.1 See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1914(a), 1915(a). Plaintiff will be

provided the opportunity either to submit the appropriate affidavit in support of a request to

21

proceed in forma pauperis or to submit the required fees totaling $405.00.

Plaintiff is cautioned that the in forma pauperis application form includes a section that
