Hatcher v. Clarke Doc. 7 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF VIRGINIA Richmond Division QUASHAWN AKEEM HATCHER, Plaintiff, v. Civil Action No. 3:23CV471 (RCY) HAROLD W. CLARKE, Defendant. MEMORANDUM OPINION By Memorandum Order entered on September 28, 2023, the Court directed Plaintiff to pay an initial partial filing fee of $27.82 or state under penalty of perjury that he did not have sufficient assets to pay such a fee within thirty (30) days of the date of entry thereof. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b)(1). Plaintiff has neither paid the initial partial filing fee nor averred that he cannot pay such a fee. Therefore, Plaintiff is not entitled to proceed in forma pauperis. Plaintiff’s disregard of the Court’s directives warrants dismissal of the action. Accordingly, the action will be DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. An appropriate Order shall issue. /s// Roderick C.
