ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
This is a civil rights action brought by a state prisoner under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This
matter is presently before the Court regarding Plaintiff’s failure to pay the initial partial filing fee.

(ECF No. 9). The Court informed Plaintiff he must pay an initial partial filing fee of $54.47. (Id.)
(“Plaintiff must pay an initial partial filing fee of $54.47.”) The Court directed the Michigan
