Based on the partial answer given, it appears the answer to Question 2 likely should be “None.”

Although the Court does not herein screen the submitted complaint, counsel may wish to ensure
that the complaint complies with the requirements outlined by the Court previously. To the extent Plaintiff
wishes to do so, he may file an amended complaint concurrently with any renewed in forma pauperis
application.
