Filing 5
ORDER GRANTING MOTION FOR LEAVE TO PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS, DISMISSING COMPLAINT, AND DIRECTING FURTHER PROCEEDINGS - This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff Kenneth Kay's Motion to Proceed in Forma Pauperis. (Dkt. #2 ). Kay, and inmate in the Indiana Department of Correction (IDOC) filed this 42 U.S.C. 1983 action on July 19, 2021. The Court now screens his complaint and makes the following rulings. Mr. Kay's motion to proceed in forma pauperis, dkt. #2 , is GRANTED to the extent that he is assessed an initial partial filing fee of Forty-One Dollars and Eighty Cents ($41.80). He shall have through August 26, 2021, in which to pay this sum to the clerk of the district court. Mr. Kay's allegations and attached exhibits fail to raise an inference of a constitutional violation. Therefore, Mr. Kay's complaint must be dismissed for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. Mr. Kay shall have through August 26, 2021, in which to show cause why Judgment consistent with this Order should not issue. Copy sent pursuant to distribution list.
