Geremy Sandy Williams v. Unknown Parties

Summary

The United States District Court for the Eastern District of California orders the plaintiff, a federal prisoner proceeding pro se under Bivens, to submit an application to proceed in forma pauperis or pay the filing fee within thirty days. The plaintiff must also submit a certified six-month prison trust account statement, and the order warns that noncompliance may result in dismissal.

Holdings

1. Because plaintiff had neither paid the filing fee nor submitted an in forma pauperis application, the court ordered him, within thirty days of service, to submit a completed and signed application or pay the $405 filing fee.

Questions Presented

1. Whether plaintiff should be required to pay the filing fee or submit an application to proceed in forma pauperis and a certified prison trust-account statement.
