Docket No. 380796
LC No. 25-070265-AH
Brock A. Swartzle, Judge, acting under MCR 7.211(E)(2), orders:
The motion to waive fees is DENIED because MCL 600.2963 mandates that a prisoner
pursuing a civil action be liable for the filing fees. Any future motions filed with this Court must be
accompanied by the full filing fee.
Within 21 days after the date of this order, plaintiff shall pay to the Clerk of the Court the
entry fee of $400 for the total of the entry fee of $375 and the $25 electronic filing system fee because
the prisoner account statement shows a balance equal to or in excess of this amount. MCL
600.2963(2). Additionally, plaintiff shall submit a copy of this order and refile the pleadings
with the payment. Failure to comply with this order will result in the original complaint not being
filed in this Court and plaintiff not being responsible for paying the filing fee.
The Clerk of this Court shall furnish two copies of this order to plaintiff and return
plaintiff’s pleadings with this order.
