Case No. 2:23-cv-02135-RFB-NJK

AMMAR HARRIS,

Order Directing Petitioner to File
Application to Proceed In Forma Pauperis
or Pay Filing Fee

Petitioner,
v.
COUNTY OF CLARK,
Respondent.

Ammar Harris has submitted a pro se 28 U.S.C. § 2241 habeas corpus petition. (ECF No.
1-1.) He has not, however, either paid the $5.00 filing fee or submitted a completed application to
proceed in forma pauperis with the required inmate account statements for the past sixth months
and financial certificate. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2); Local Rule LSR1-2.
This action therefore is subject to dismissal without prejudice as improperly commenced.
However, it is unclear from the papers presented whether a dismissal without prejudice will
materially affect a later analysis of any timeliness issue with respect to a new action.
Therefore IT IS ORDERED that on or before Monday, April 8, 2024, petitioner must
submit either the $5.00 filing fee or a fully completed application to proceed in forma pauperis.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that failure to do so may result in the dismissal of this action
without prejudice and without further notice.
