IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN MUSTAFA-EL K.A. AJALA, f.k.a. Dennis E. Jones-El, ORDER Plaintiff, v. Case No. 16-cv-639-bbc U.S. HOSPITAL AND CLINICS et al., Defendants. Plaintiff Mustafa-El K.A. Ajala has filed a proposed civil complaint, but has neither paid the filing fee nor requested leave to proceed without prepayment. For this case to proceed, plaintiff must pay the $400 filing fee or submit a properly supported motion for leave to proceed without prepayment of the filing fee no later than October 11, 2016. A motion for leave to proceed without prepayment of the filing fee must be accompanied by a certified copy of plaintiff’s inmate trust fund account statement (or institutional equivalent) for the six-month period immediately preceding the date of the complaint. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2). If I find that plaintiff is indigent, I will calculate an initial partial payment amount that must be paid before the court can screen the merits of the complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2). Thereafter, plaintiff will be required to pay the balance of the filing fee in installments. ORDER IT IS ORDERED that plaintiff Mustafa-El K.A. Ajala may have until October 11, 2016 to submit the $400 filing fee or a motion for leave to proceed without prepayment and a trust fund account statement for the period beginning approximately March 13, 2016 and ending approximately September 13, 2016. If, by October 11, 2016, plaintiff fails to respond to this order, I will assume that plaintiff wishes to withdraw this action voluntarily. In that event, the case will be closed without prejudice to plaintiff filing the case at a later date. Entered this 19th day of September, 2016.
