March 20, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 8 ORDER striking #7 Motion to Proceed Without Prepayment of Fees and Costs. The Plaintiff missed the deadline to file a revised application to proceed in forma pauperis by almost two weeks, offered no explanation for his tardiness, and, moreover, failed to offer additional information in his revised application as directed. See ECF No. 5. Accordingly, his revised application is STRICKEN. The Plaintiff is advised that my earlier recommendation that this case be dismissed (ECF No. 6) remains pending and that he has until March 30, 2023, to file an objection or otherwise seek relief. By MAGISTRATE JUDGE KAREN FRINK WOLF. (MGW)

February 22, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 5 ORDER denying without prejudice #2 Motion to Proceed Without Prepayment of Fees and Costs. In his application to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP), the Plaintiff indicates that he does not know how much money he has or how much he spends per month on utilities. Without providing any additional context, he states that a "payee does" know how much money he has and that the same "payee pays all" his bills. Even if someone else handles the Plaintiff's finances, I cannot determine whether he qualifies for IFP status without knowing how much money he has and what his monthly expenses are; accordingly, his IFP application is DENIED without prejudice, and he is ORDERED to submit a revised IFP application with more information or pay this Court's $402 filing fee by March 8, 2023, failing which I will recommend that this case be dismissed. By MAGISTRATE JUDGE KAREN FRINK WOLF. (MGW)
