IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA PANAMA CITY DIVISION WILLIE MAUDE JACKSON, Plaintiff, vs. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Defendant. _____________________________/ ORDER Plaintiff initiated this action by filing a civil rights complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1331 or § 1346 and a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis (Docs. 1, 8). Upon review of the motion and attached financial affidavit, the court concludes that Plaintiff has sufficient funds in her inmate account to pay the filing fee in full.

A total of $1,385.32 was deposited into the Plaintiff's inmate account over the six-month period preceding the filing of the complaint (an average of $230.88 per month). Therefore, the motion to proceed in forma pauperis shall be denied. Accordingly, it is ORDERED: 1. Plaintiff's motion to proceed in forma pauperis (Doc. 8) is DENIED. Within THIRTY (30) DAYS from the date of docketing of this order, Plaintiff shall pay the full $350.00 filing fee. 2.
