Defendant.

This matter is before the Court on its own motion. Plaintiff filed a Complaint, Filing

administrative fees. Plaintiff has the choice of either submitting the $405.00 filing and
administrative fees to the Clerk’s office or submitting a request to proceed in forma
pauperis. Failure to take either action within 30 days will result in the Court dismissing
this case without further notice to Plaintiff.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that:
1.

Plaintiff is directed to submit the $405.00 fees to the Clerk’s office or submit

a request to proceed in forma pauperis within 30 days. Failure to take either action will
result in dismissal of this matter without further notice.
2.

The Clerk of the Court is directed to send to Plaintiff the Form AO240

(“Application to Proceed Without Prepayment of Fees and Affidavit”).
3.

The Clerk of the Court is directed to set a pro se case management deadline

in this matter with the following text: December 26, 2024: Check for MIFP or payment.

Dated this 26th day of November, 2024.
