No. 4:18-cv-00764-NAB

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This matter is before the Court on remand from the United States Court of Appeals for the
Eighth Circuit for the limited purpose of determining plaintiff Pierre Watson’s in forma pauperis
status and assessing appellate filing fees pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. (Docket No. 62). Plaintiff
has not paid the appellate filing fee or filed a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis on
appeal. As a result, the Court will order plaintiff to either pay the full appellate filing fee or file a
motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. If plaintiff files a motion for leave to proceed in
forma pauperis, he must provide the Court with a certified copy of his prison account statement as
required by 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a).
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff shall, within thirty (30) days of the date of this
order, either pay the full $505 appellate filing fee or file a motion for leave to proceed in forma
pauperis on appeal.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that if plaintiff files a motion for leave to proceed in forma
pauperis, he must provide a certified copy of his prison account statement for the six-month period
immediately preceding the filing of the notice of appeal.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of Court shall mail to plaintiff a copy of the
Motion to Proceed in Forma Pauperis – Prisoner Cases form.
