Richmond Division RAYMOND LEE ACKISS, JR., Plaintiff, Civil Action No. 3:25cvl72 V. ROCKY HOLCOMB, Defendant. MEMORANDUM OPINION On March 14, 2025, the Court conditionally docketed Plainlil'Fs action. Plaintiff requested leave to proceed in forma pauperis. By Memorandum Order entered on April 9, 2025, the Court directed Plaintiff to pay an initial partial filing fee of $29.57 or slate under penalty of perjury that he did not have sufficient assets to pay such a fee within thirty (30) days of the date of entry thereof See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b)(1). Plaintiff has neither paid the initial partial filing fee nor averred that he cannot pay such a fee. Therefore, Plaintiff is not entitled to proceed in forma pauperis. Plaintiffs disregard of the Coui-f s directives warrants dismissal of the action. Accordingly, the action will be DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
An appropriate Final Order shall issue. Date: 05 0025 M. Hannahl ■it United States District Judge Richmond, Virginia
