VACATING ORDER. At this time, #7 in forma pauperis status is granted only to Mr. Staton with respect to the claims he has brought in his own right. With respect to the claims that he purports to bring on behalf of his minor daughter, in forma pauperis status is not yet granted because Mr. Staton has not yet complied with that portion of the Courts July 26, 2022 order that required him to submit a statement of the financial resources of whoever is supporting her, whether that be her mother or some other custodian. See Pierre v. City of Rochester, No. 16-cv-6428 CJS, 2018 WL 10072449, at *1 (W.D.N.Y. Dec. 13, 2018) (Where a litigant is supported or assisted by another person, the Court may consider that persons ability to pay the filing fee.). The Court will extend his deadline for making such a submission to September 6, 2022. #2 Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis is denied as moot. If you change your address at any time during the litigation of this case, Local Rule 83.1(c)2 provides that you notify the court. Signed by Judge Thomas O. Farrish on 8/15/2022. (Corriette, M.)

NOTICE OF INSUFFICIENCY re: Motion for Leave to Proceed In Forma Pauperis. Terrell Staton, a sentenced inmate at the Carl Robinson Correctional Institution, filed a civil action entitled Staton v. Commissioner of D.O.C. on October 21, 2021. Judge Bryant dismissed that case because, among other reasons, Mr. Staton lumped several unrelated and mis-joined claims into a single complaint. See Init. Review Order, Staton v. Commr, No. 21-cv-1302 (VLB), May 6, 2022. Judge Bryant did, however, allow Mr. Staton leave to refile his claims as separate actions. Evidently in response to that instruction, Mr. Staton has filed four new cases, which the Clerk of the Court docketed as Staton v. Lamont, No. 22-cv-854 (VLB), Staton v. Commr of Corrs., No. 22-cv-855 (VLB), Staton v. Shriver, No. 22-cv-860 (VAB), and Staton v. Gonzalez, No. 22-cv-861 (VLB). Mr. Staton did not pay the filing fee in any of the four cases.To proceed in forma pauperis in this District that is, to file a civil case without pre-paying the filing fee prisoners must file a completed Application to Proceed In Forma Pauperis in a Civil Rights Action, along with a certified copy of their inmate trust account statement, showing balances and transactions for the six months preceding the filing of the complaint. See 28 U.S.C. 1915(b). In the Staton v. Lamont matter, Mr. Staton filed a completed application but no trust account statement. In the Staton v. Shriver matter, he not only failed to file a trust account statement; his application is also incomplete, because he did not complete and sign the funds withdrawal authorization on page four. In the Staton v. Gonzalez matter, he filed a trust account statement, but it was not certified by an administrator of inmate trust accounts; moreover, it was accompanied by an application not in his name, but rather in the name of his minor daughter, and it lacked a funds authorization in his name. In the Staton v. Commr of Corrs. matter, he filed neither an application nor a trust account statement.The Clerk of the Court is respectfully directed to mail four blank Application to Proceed In Forma Pauperis in a Civil Rights Action forms to Mr. Staton at his address of record. Mr. Staton is directed to fill out a separate form for each of his four lawsuits, writing the case number of each suit on the first page of each application. Mr. Staton must fill out each form completely, and in particular he must sign the funds withdrawal authorization in each application, so that the Court can be sure that he really means to authorize the withdrawal of $1,400 ($350 x four lawsuits) from his trust account according to the schedule set forth in 28 U.S.C. 1915. Also, a trust account statement for the period January-June 2022 must be certified by an administrator of inmate trust accounts.Finally, if Mr. Staton genuinely wishes to bring the Staton v. Gonzalez matter on his daughters behalf as well as his own, he must include both his and his daughters financial information in that application. To provide complete financial information for his daughter, Mr. Staton must provide a statement of the financial resources of whoever is supporting her, whether that be the childs mother or some other custodian. See Fridman v. City of New York, 195 F. Supp. 2d 534, 537 (S.D.N.Y. 2002). Mr. Staton must comply with all of the above by August 15, 2022; if he does not, one or more of his cases may be dismissed. Signed by Judge Thomas O. Farrish on 7/26/2022.(Corriette, M.)
