Date Filed Document Text
July 26, 2021 Filing 14 NOTICE by Rodolphe Moresca (Payton, R.)
July 22, 2021 Filing fee received from Rudolphe Moresca: $ 402.00, receipt number CTXB00012298 (Payton, R.)
July 9, 2021 Set Deadlines: Filing fee due by 7/28/2021 or Dismissal. (Perez, J.)
July 8, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 13 ORDER denying #2 Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis; denying #8 Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis. The plaintiff, Rodolphe Moresca, is incarcerated at Carl Robinson Correctional Institution. He has sued employees of the Stamford Police Department and seeks leave to proceed without paying the filing fee under 28 U.S.C. 1915. See ECF Nos. 1, 2, 8. The Court considers whether information provided by the plaintiff demonstrates that the burden of paying the $402.00 filing fee would hamper his ability to obtain the necessities of life or force him to abandon a potentially meritorious claim. See Adkins v. E.I. Dupont de Nemours & Co., 335 U.S. 331, 339-40 (1948). Mr. Moresca receives $21.00 a month as payment for performing a prison job. See ECF No. 8, at 2. In addition, although not acknowledged by Mr. Moresca in answering question six on the application to proceed in forma pauperis, he received a deposit of $1,400.00 to his prison account on April 16, 2021. See ECF No. 9, at 4; ECF No. 8, at 2. The ledger sheets submitted by Mr. Moresca reflect an inmate account balance of $1,585.31 as of May 21, 2021. See ECF No. 9. No one is dependent upon the plaintiff for support and he is not responsible for room and board. See ECF No. 8, at 3. Accordingly, the plaintiff has failed to demonstrate that he would have to forgo life's necessities if he paid the $402.00 filing fee and the motions to proceed in forma pauperis, [ECF No. 2, 8], are DENIED. All further proceedings in the matter shall be held in abeyance for twenty (20) days pending the plaintiff's delivery of the filing fee in the amount of $402.00 (cash, money order, or bank or cashiers check made payable to the Clerk, U.S. District Court) to the Clerk's Office, 915 Lafayette Boulevard, Bridgeport, Connecticut, 06604. Failure to tender the filing fee within twenty (20) days of the date of this order will result in the dismissal of this action. Mr. Moresca may renew his motion for appointment of counsel if he pays the filing fee. Signed by Judge Victor A. Bolden on 7/8/2021. (Tisdale, I.)
