IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF VIRGINIA
Richmond Division

DAVID GOLDSTEIN,

Plaintiff,
V.

Civil Action No. 3:16CV980

HENRICO COUNTY POLICE, et aL,
Defendants.

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On December 27, 2016, the Court conditionally docketed Plaintiff's action. Plaintiff

requested leave to proceed in forma pauperis. By Memorandum Order entered on February 7,
2017, the Court directed Plaintiff to pay an initial partial filing fee of $73.93 or state under

penalty of perjury that he did not have sufficient assets to pay such a fee within eleven (11) days
of the date of entry thereof. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b)(1). Plaintiff has neither paid the initial

partial filing fee nor averred that he cannot pay such a fee. Therefore, Plaintiff is not entitled to
proceed informa pauperis. Plaintiffs disregard of the Court's directives warrants dismissal of
the action. Accordingly, the action will be DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
An appropriate Order shall issue.
