In a notice filed with the Court on March 18, 2013, Plaintiff indicates that as of March 23, 2013, he will be released from the detention facility and will reside in Pueblo, Colorado. It appears that as of March 23, 2013, Plaintiff no longer is incarcerated. Plaintiff’s continuing obligation to pay the filing fee is to be determined, like any nonprisoner, solely on the basis of whether he qualifies for in forma pauperis status. See Whitney v.

Alternatively, Plaintiff may elect to pay the $350.00 filing fee to pursue his claims in this action. Accordingly, it is ORDERED that within thirty days from the date of this Order Plaintiff submit to the Court an Amended Motion and Affidavit for Leave to Proceed Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 used by nonprisoners.
