In Moshir v. IGPP U.S.A. Inc., Judge Swain ordered payment of filing fees or submission of an application to proceed without prepayment.
Ali Moshir must either pay the $402 in fees or submit the required application within 30 days; failure to comply will result in dismissal of the action.
What happened
In Moshir v. IGPP U.S.A. Inc., Ali Moshir filed the action without paying the required fees or submitting an application to proceed without prepaying them. The order states that Moshir is representing himself.
Within 30 days, Moshir must either pay $402 in filing and administrative fees or submit the attached signed application. No summons will issue at this time, and the case will be processed if Moshir complies; otherwise, the action will be dismissed.
Judge Laura Taylor Swain also certified that an appeal would not be taken in good faith and denied permission to proceed without prepaying fees for any appeal.

Background
Ali Moshir brought this action without a lawyer. The complaint was submitted without the required filing fees and without an application to proceed without prepaying fees, commonly called an IFP application.
Order
The court ordered Moshir, within 30 days of the order, to do one of two things: pay $402 in fees, consisting of a $350 filing fee and a $52 administrative fee, or submit the attached signed application to proceed without prepaying fees. If the court grants that application, Moshir may proceed without paying the fees in advance.
No summons will issue at this time. If Moshir complies with the order, the case will be processed under the Clerk’s Office procedures. If Moshir does not comply within the allowed time, the action will be dismissed.
Appeal
The court certified under federal law that any appeal from this order would not be taken in good faith. It therefore denied permission to proceed without prepaying fees for purposes of an appeal.
Result
The court issued an order directing Moshir either to pay the required fees or submit an application to proceed without prepaying them. The order did not decide the underlying claims.
