ORDER
This is a civil action filed by a pro se litigant. Under Local Civil Rule 73.02(B)(2)
(D.S.C.), pretrial proceedings in this action have been referred to the assigned United States
Magistrate Judge
By order issued on June 28, 2012, Plaintiff was given a specific time frame in which
to bring this case into proper form. Plaintiff has complied with the court’s order, and this
case is now in proper form.
PAYMENT OF THE FILING FEE:
Plaintiff has submitted an Application to Proceed Without Prepayment of Fees and
Affidavit (Form AO 240), and supplement thereto, which are construed as a Motion for
Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915. A review of the Motion reveals
that Plaintiff should be relieved of the obligation to prepay the full filing fee. Plaintiff’s
Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis is granted, subject to the court’s right to
require a payment if Plaintiff’s financial condition changes, and to tax fees and costs against
Plaintiff at the conclusion of this case if the court finds the case to be without merit. See
Flint v. Haynes, 651 F.2d 970, 972–4 (4th Cir. 1981).
TO THE CLERK OF COURT:
The Clerk of Court is directed not to issue the summonses or forward this matter to
the United States Marshal for service of process at this time.
TO PLAINTIFF:
Plaintiff must place the civil action number listed above (C/A No. 3:12-01521-CMC
-SVH) on any document provided to the court pursuant to this order. Any future filings in
this case must be sent to the address below (901 Richland Street, Columbia, South
Carolina 29201). All documents requiring Plaintiff’s signature shall be signed with
Plaintiff’s full legal name written in Plaintiff’s own handwriting. Pro se litigants shall not
use the “s/typed name” format used in the Electronic Case Filing System. In all future
filings with this court, Plaintiff is directed to use letter-sized (eight and one-half inches by
eleven inches) paper only, to write or type text on one side of a sheet of paper only and not
to write or type on both sides of any sheet of paper. Plaintiff is further instructed not to write
to the edge of the paper, but to maintain one inch margins on the top, bottom, and sides of
each paper submitted.
Plaintiff is a pro se litigant. Plaintiff’s attention is directed to the following important
notice:
You are ordered to always keep the Clerk of Court advised in writing (901
Richland Street, Columbia, South Carolina 29201) if your address changes
for any reason, so as to assure that orders or other matters that specify
deadlines for you to meet will be received by you. If as a result of your failure
to comply with this order, you fail to meet a deadline set by this court, your
case may be dismissed for violating this order. Therefore, if you have a
change of address before this case is ended, you must comply with this order
by immediately advising the Clerk of Court in writing of such change of
address and providing the court with the docket number of all pending cases
you have filed with this court. Your failure to do so will not be excused by the
court.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
