The court denied Plaintiff's IFP Application and directed her to remit the required filing fee by August 4, 2023, or else her action would be automatically dismissed. See ECF No. #8 . On July 25, 2023, Plaintiff filed an Amended Complaint seeking a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction, ECF No. #9 , and purportedly paid the $402 total filing fee, ECF No. #10 . Subsequently, the Clerk (via Finance) advised Plaintiff that the $402 check could not be processed "due to frozen/blocked account," and that an alternate form of payment must be remitted by September 4, 2023, ECF No. #28 . The court, thus, takes no further action on any pending matter until Plaintiff remits the filing fee. Failure to do so as instructed by the Clerk will result in automatic dismissal of this action.

July 21, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 8 ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF'S APPLICATION TO PROCEED IN DISTRICT COURT WITHOUT PREPAYING FEES OR COSTS, ECF NO. 3 - Signed by JUDGE J. MICHAEL SEABRIGHT on 7/21/2023.... Plaintiff is capable of paying the filing fee. See 28 U.S.C. 1915(a). Accordingly, the court finds that Plaintiff fails to qualify for IFP status under 1915(a), and her IFP Application, ECF No. 3, is DENIED. Plaintiff should give serious consideration as to whether to pay the filing fee to proceed with her case in this court. Plaintiff's Complaint is a diversity action based on injury allegedly caused by five defendants located in California, one defendant in Nevada, two defendants in New York, and one defendant in Romania. ECF No. 1 at PageID.13. Instead, it appears that Plaintiff's claim should be brought in a venue where, for example, the subject trust accounts or financial records are located. Thus, before paying a filing fee in this district, Plaintiff may wish to consider whether she should file her claim in a more appropriate forum. If Plaintiff wishes to proceed with this action, she must remit a filing fee of $350 and an administrative fee of $52, for a total of $402 to the Clerk of Court by August 4, 2023. Failure to do so will result in automatic dismissal of this action.
