January 31, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 9 ENTRY GRANTING #3 and #7 MOTIONS FOR LEAVE TO PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS, DISMISSING AMENDED COMPLAINT, AND DIRECTING FURTHER PROCEEDINGS - The Court created this action when it severed numerous claims misjoined in one complaint. This action is based on Derek Boyd's allegations regarding a failure to properly clean up blood following a fight at Plainfield Correctional Facility (PCF). In this entry, the Court grants Mr. Boyd's motions for leave to proceed in forma pauperis and screens his amended complaint. Because the action consists of one claim, and because it is frivolous, the Court dismisses the amended complaint and directs Mr. Boyd to show cause why the action should not be dismissed. Mr. Boyd's motions to proceed in forma pauperis, dkts. #3 and #7 , are GRANTED to the extent that he is assessed an initial partial filing fee of $2.80. Mr. Boyd will have through February 28, 2022, to pay this sum to the clerk of the district court. Mr. Boyd's complaint, dkt. #2 , is dismissed as frivolous. Mr. Boyd will have through February 28, 2022, to file an amended complaint or show cause why the Court should not dismiss this action and enter final judgment. If Mr. Boyd files an amended complaint, it must correct the deficiencies discussed in this entry. It must include the case number associated with this action, no. 1:21-cv-3083-JRS-MPB. It will completely replace the original complaint, and it will be screened pursuant to 1915A, so it must include all defendants, claims, and factual allegations Mr. Boyd wishes to pursue in this action. Failure to comply with these orders in the time provided may result in dismissal of this action without further warning or opportunity to show cause. (See Order). Signed by Judge James R. Sweeney II on 1/31/2022. (AKH)
