This matter is before the court on its own motion. The above-captioned matter
was provisionally filed on July 25, 2011. (Filing No. 1.) However, due to certain

corrected. To assure further consideration of the Complaint, Plaintiff must correct the

of either tendering the $350.00 fee to the Clerk of the court or submitting a request
to proceed in forma pauperis and an affidavit of poverty in support thereof. If
Plaintiff chooses to do the latter, the enclosed pauper’s forms should be completed
and returned to this court.
