TIM KELLER, et al,
Defendants.
ORDER TO CURE DEFICIENCIES
This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff’s pro se Letter Regarding Civil Rights Claims
(Doc. 1) (Letter). The Letter indicates he wishes to file a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 prisoner civil rights
complaint. On November 13, 2023, the Clerk’s Office sent Plaintiff a blank § 1983 complaint
and motion to proceed in forma pauperis, but he has not returned the forms. Plaintiff must file a
complaint within thirty (30) days of entry of this Order. By the same deadline, Plaintiff must also
prepay the $402 filing fee or, alternatively, file an in forma pauperis motion along with an account
statement reflecting transactions for a six-month period. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2). All filings
should include the case number (23-cv-0998-MLG-KRS), and mailing envelopes should be
labeled as Legal Mail and include the inmate number. The failure to timely comply with each
directive above may result in dismissal without further notice.
IT IS ORDERED that within thirty (30) days of entry of this Order, Plaintiff must: (1) file
a complaint on the § 1983 form; and (2) prepay the $402 filing fee or, alternatively, submit an in
forma pauperis motion that attaches an account statement reflecting transactions for a six-month
period.
