Date Filed Document Text
August 1, 2024 Opinion or Order Filing 8 ORDER ON IN FORMA PAUPERIS STATUS: The plaintiff's motion to proceed in forma pauperis, dkt. #3 , is GRANTED. Although the plaintiff is excused from pre-paying the full filing fee, he still must pay the three hundred and fifty dollar ($350.00) filing fee pursuant to the statutory formula set forth in 28 U.S.C. 1915(b)(2) when able. See 28 U.S.C. 1915(b)(1) ("the prisoner shall be required to pay the full amount of a filing fee."). The assessment of even an initial partial filing fee is waived because the plaintiff has no assets and no means by which to pay a partial filing fee. 28 U.S.C. 1915(b)(4). Accordingly, no initial partial filing fee is due at this time. See Order. Signed by Judge James Patrick Hanlon on 8/1/2024.(Copy mailed to Plaintiff.) (LF)
