Civil Action No. 14-cv-03008-BNB
JUAN VIANEZ,
Plaintiff,
v.
ADMINISTRATION DIVISION,
JUSTIN ANDREWS, and
BRADLEY T. GROSS,
Defendants.

ORDER CLOSING ACTION

Plaintiff Juan Vianez is in the custody of the Federal Bureau of Prisons and
currently is incarcerated at the United States Penitentiary in Florence, Colorado. On
October 16, 2014, Mr. Vianez initiated an action in the United States District Court for
the District of Columbia (District of Columbia) that challenges the conditions of his
confinement. The District of Columbia transferred the case to this Court on the same
day because Plaintiff is detained in Colorado and it appears that all alleged events took
place in Colorado and all named Defendants reside here.
Plaintiff is enjoined from filing a civil complaint in this Court unless he complies
with the requirements of his filing restrictions under Vianez v. United States, No. 14-cv01363-LTB, ECF No. 7 (D. Colo. July 1, 2014). To file a complaint in this Court Plaintiff
must take the following steps:
1. File a motion titled, “Motion Pursuant to Court Order Seeking Leave to
File a Pro Se Action;”
2. Attach to the Motion a copy of the injunction that imposes these

recommended filing restrictions;
3. Attach to the Motion a completed Court-approved prisoner complaint or
habeas form and either pay the $400 filing fee for a complaint or a $5 filing
fee for a habeas, or in the alternative submit a request to proceed pursuant
to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 on a form that is approved by this Court and
applicable to the action being filed, and attach a certified inmate account
statement as required;
4. Attach a list of all prisoner complaints and 28 U.S.C. § 2241 actions
Plaintiff currently has pending or has filed in all federal district courts;
5. Attach a notarized affidavit that certifies Plaintiff has not presented the
same claims in another federal district court, that the claims are not
frivolous or taken in bad faith, that the lawsuit is not interposed for any
improper purpose to harass or cause unnecessary delay, and that the
filling complies with this injunction, the Fed. R. Civ. P. 8, all other
provisions of the Federal Rules of Civil, and the Local Rules of Practice of
the United States District Court for the District of Colorado.
The Court will order the action closed because Plaintiff’s filings do not comply with these
filing restrictions.
The Court also certifies pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from
this Order is not taken in good faith, and, therefore, in forma pauperis status will be
denied for the purpose of appeal. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438 (1962).
If Plaintiff files a notice of appeal he must pay the full $505 appellate filing fee or file a
motion to proceed in forma pauperis in the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth
Circuit within thirty days in accordance with Fed. R. App. P. 24.
Accordingly, it is
ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court is directed to close this action because
Plaintiff has failed to comply with the filing restrictions set forth in Vianez v. United
States, No. 14-cv-01363-LTB, ECF No. 7 (D. Colo. July 1, 2014). It is
