Filing 9
ORDER: Plaintiff's revised application for leave to proceed in forma pauperis #7 is granted. The Court orders the trust fund officer at Plaintiff's place of incarceration to deduct $5.66 from Plaintiff's account for payment to the Clerk of Court as an initial partial payment of the filing fee and to continue making monthly deductions in accordance with this order. The Court directs the Clerk of Court to (1) send (electronically if possible) a copy of this order to the trust fund officer at Plaintiff's current place of incarceration and to the Court's Fiscal Department; (2) file Plaintiff's complaint #1 ; (3) issue summons for service of the complaint on Defendants Dart and Gallegos by the U.S. Marshal; and (4) send Plaintiff two blank USM-285 (Marshals service) forms, a magistrate judge consent form, filing instructions, and a copy of this order. Plaintiff must complete and return a USM-285 form for service on each Defendant. Failure to return the USM-285 forms by December 18, 2020, may result in dismissal of the case or the dismissal of the Defendant who cannot be served because the Court does not receive a USM-285., as well as dismissal of this case in its entirety. Plaintiff is notified that he must promptly submit a change-of-address notification if he is transferred to another facility or released. If Plaintiff fails to keep the Court informed of his address, this action will be subject to dismissal for failure to comply with a Court order and for failure to prosecute. The Court appoints the U.S. Marshal to serve Defendants. Plaintiff's motion for attorney representation #4 is denied without prejudice to renewal later in this case. Signed by the Honorable Mary M. Rowland on 11/13/2020. Mailed notice (jh, )

If Plaintiff wants to proceed with this lawsuit, he must either (1) submit a renewed application that is certified by an appropriate official and accompanied by a copy of Plaintiff's trust fund statement showing all transactions in his account for the six-month period immediately preceding his initiation of this action; or (2) pay the full statutory filing fee of $400.00.

Plaintiff is reminded to promptly submit a change-of-address notification if he is transferred to another facility or released. Failure to tell the Court of a change in address may lead to dismissal of this action for failure to comply with a Court order and for want of prosecution.
