CASE NO. 4:20-cv-00215-CDL

ORDER
On September 9, 2020, the Court received Plaintiff’s pro
se complaint (ECF No. 1) raising claims pursuant to 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983.

Plaintiff, however, failed to pay the filing fee or

submit a motion to proceed without payment of the filing fees.
Thus, before this action may proceed, Plaintiff must either
pay the required $400.00 filing fee (the $350.00 statutory
filing fee plus a $50.00 administrative filing fee) or file
a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis.
Accordingly, Plaintiff is ORDERED to pay the filing fee
or file a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis within
FOURTEEN (14) DAYS.

The Clerk is DIRECTED to send Plaintiff

a financial affidavit form along with a copy of this Order.
Failure to comply with this Order may result in the dismissal
of Plaintiff’s action.

There shall be no service of process

in this case until further order of the Court.
SO ORDERED, this 10th day of September, 2020.
S/Clay D. Land
UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
