ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION

This matter is before the court pursuant to the Report and Recommendation
[docket no. 8] of United States Magistrate Judge Linda Anderson, which recommends
that this court deny plaintiff’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis because the plaintiff
has sufficient funds to pay for the filing fee. Plaintiff has filed no objection.
Based upon the evidence in the Report and Recommendation, this court hereby
adopts the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge as the
order of this court. The plaintiff’s petition for leave to proceed in forma pauperis [docket
no. 3] is denied. The Magistrate Judge provided until February 11, 2016, to pay his
filing fee, but he did not do so within that allotted time. This court directs the plaintiff to
pay his filing fee within ten (10) days of receipt of this order. If plaintiff fails to pay the
filing fee, his case shall be dismissed.
SO ORDERED, THIS THE 26th DAY OF FEBRUARY, 2016.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
