Date Filed Document Text
October 24, 2023 SUPPLEMENTAL record filed. Docket entries: 26 & 27 - Motion to Proceed IFP on Appeal and Affidavit. [23-1711] (DO) [Entered: 10/24/2023 04:54 PM]
October 19, 2023 NOTICE of unavailability of counsel filed by Attorney Steven Bruce Nelson for Appellees Steven M. Pare, Oscar L. Perez, Providence, RI and Brett Smiley. Served on 10/19/2023. [23-1711] (SBN) [Entered: 10/19/2023 10:47 AM]
October 16, 2023 Opinion or Order ORDER entered: Appellant's motions collectively seeking for leave to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP) are denied without prejudice for failure to submit a financial affidavit. A compliant request for in forma pauperis status consists of a motion and a fully completed Form 4, Financial Affidavit. A copy of Form 4 is enclosed to the appellant. The district court denied appellant's request to proceed in forma pauperis ("IFP") on June 26, 2023 in Docket No. 1:71-cv-04523 (D.R.I.). Accordingly, appellant is not eligible to proceed in forma pauperis without further authorization pursuant to Rule 24(a)(3) of the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure because he was not previously granted permission to proceed in forma pauperis in the District Court action as required by that rule. Appellant's failure to either pay the $505.00 fee to the clerk of the district court or file a compliant request for in forma pauperis status by October 30, 2023 will result in the appeal being dismissed for lack of diligent prosecution. See 1st Cir. R. 3.0(b). [23-1711] (JW) [Entered: 10/16/2023 12:18 PM]
