No. C 11-01246 CW (PR)
v.
(Docket no. 13)

ALAMEDA COUNTY JAIL,
7
Defendant.
________________________________/
8
Plaintiff, a state prisoner, filed this pro se civil rights
9
action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, claiming the violation of his
United States District Court
For the Northern District of California
10
constitutional rights when he was incarcerated at the Alameda
11
County Jail.
The Court granted Plaintiff’s motion for leave to
12
proceed in forma pauperis (IFP).
In so doing, the Court sent to
13
Plaintiff and the Prison Trust Account Office a copy of the
14
Northern District’s “Instructions for Payment of Prisoner’s Filing
15
Fee,” which explain that when a prisoner is granted leave to
16
proceed IFP under 28 U.S.C. § 1915, funds will be deducted from his
17
prison trust account and sent to the court’s financial office until
18
the filing fee has been paid in full.
Docket no. 3.
Additionally,
19
Plaintiff was told in the IFP order that the filing fee for this
20
action is $350.00.
Id.
21
On September 7, 2011, the Court dismissed the action with
22
prejudice for failure to state a claim upon which relief may be
23
granted.
Plaintiff appealed.
Subsequently, the Ninth Circuit
24
dismissed the appeal because of Plaintiff’s failure to perfect the
25
appeal.
Plaintiff moved the Ninth Circuit to reinstate the appeal;
26
the request was denied without prejudice.
Docket no. 12.
27
Now pending before this Court is Plaintiff’s request that
28
1
funds withdrawn from his prison trust account and forwarded to the
2
court’s financial office to pay his filing fee after his case was
3
dismissed be refunded to him.
4
explained to Plaintiff when he was granted leave to proceed IFP,
5
under 28 U.S.C. § 1915 funds will continue to be withdrawn from his
6
prison trust account and forwarded to the court’s financial office
7
until the $350.00 filing fee has been paid in full.
The request is DENIED.
8
This Order terminates Docket no. 13.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
