Filing 5 ORDER: The matter is before the court for a ruling on the plaintiff's application to proceed in forma pauperis ("IFP") and his motion to appoint counsel. (Doc. Nos. #2 , #3 .) Because it appears from the plaintiff's submission that he lacks sufficient financial resources from which to pay the full filing fee in advance, the court GRANTS his motion (Doc. No. #2 ) to proceed IFP in this matter. However, under 1915(b), the plaintiff nonetheless remains responsible for paying the full filing fee. Accordingly, the plaintiff is hereby ASSESSED a $350 filing fee. The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to send a copy of this order to the Warden of the Riverbend Maximum Security Institution to ensure that the custodian of the plaintiff's inmate trust account complies with the portion of 28 U.S.C. 1915 pertaining to payment of the filing fee. The court is quite simply unable to decipher the plaintiff's convoluted complaint well enough to apply any legal analysis to it. Rather than dismissing the plaintiff's complaint for his failure to comply with that rule, the court will provide him with a second opportunity to state a claim for which relief could be granted. Accordingly, the plaintiff MUST, within 28 days, file an amended complaint in which he clearly and legibly. Signed by District Judge Aleta A. Trauger on 3/8/2019.
