Defendants.

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se in this civil rights action. The Court, having
12
reviewed plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis, hereby finds and ORDERS:
13
(1)
Plaintiff’s declaration indicates that he is unable to afford the Court’s filing fee or
14
give security therefore. Accordingly, plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis (Dkts. 1
15
and 9) is GRANTED. As set forth below, an initial partial filing fee will be collected, and
16
plaintiff is thereafter required to make monthly payments of 20 percent of the preceding month’s
17
income credited to his account until the full amount of the filing fee is satisfied.
18
(2)
Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915, and plaintiff’s approved application to proceed in
19
forma pauperis, the agency having custody of the above-named plaintiff is directed to calculate
20
an initial partial filing fee equal to 20 percent of the greater of either: (a) the average monthly
21
deposits to the prisoner’s account; or (b) the average monthly balance in the prisoner’s account
22
for the 6-month period immediately preceding the date of this Order. The initial partial filing fee
23
should be forwarded to the Clerk of Court as soon as practicable.

Subsequently, if the prisoner’s account exceeds $10.00, each month the agency having
2
custody of the prisoner is directed to collect and forward payments equal to 20 percent of the
3
prisoner’s preceding month’s income credited to the prisoner’s account. In the event that the
4
monthly payment would reduce the prisoner’s account below $10.00, the agency should collect
5
and forward only that amount which would reduce the prisoner’s account to the $10.00 level.
6
Please note that this $10.00 limit does not apply to the initial partial filing fee described above.
7
Finally, the monthly payments should be collected and forwarded to the Court until the entire
8
filing fee ($350.00) for this matter has been paid.

The Clerk is directed to send a copy of this Order to plaintiff, to the financial
officer of this Court, and to the agency having custody of plaintiff.
Dated this 28th day of June, 2018.
