Having reviewed plaintiff’s financial information, the Court assesses a partial initial filing fee of $23, which is twenty percent of his average monthly deposit. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b). Plaintiff complains that he has been disbarred from contracting with the United States Air Force because he was convicted of mail fraud. Plaintiff seeks to appeal the decision in this Court.

Therefore, the Court will require plaintiff to show cause why this action should not be dismissed without further proceedings. Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(h)(3).
