ORDER 14 MASHBURN, et al., 15 Defendants. 16 17 Plaintiff is a county inmate proceeding pro se with this civil action filed pursuant to 42 18 U.S.C. § 1983. This action was referred to this court by Local Rule 302 pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 19 636(b)(1). Plaintiff has not paid the filing fee for this action.1 Good cause appearing, plaintiff 20 will be granted 14 days within which to pay the filing fee associated with this case. Failure to pay 21 the filing fee within the time provided will result in a recommendation that this action be 22 dismissed. 23 //// 24 1 Plaintiff is precluded from proceeding in forma pauperis because in a prior case in this district 25 plaintiff was found to have filed three or more civil actions that were “frivolous, malicious, or fail[ed] to state a claim….” 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g); see Baker v. Marsh, Case No. 2:13-cv-0171- 26 GEB-EFB (E.D. Cal. February 5, 2013). Judgment in that case is final. Since there is no 27 allegation that plaintiff was “under imminent danger of serious physical injury” at the time that he filed this complaint, he is required to pay the filing fee. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g); see also 28 Andrews v. Cervantes, 493 F.3d 1047, 1055 (9th Cir. 2007). 1 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff is granted 14 days within which to 2 | pay the $400 filing fee for this action. Failure to pay the filing fee within this time period will 3 result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed. 4 | Dated: February 27, 2020 f° Lf i, / CAN fu fl. ay CAROLYN K.
