WALKER v. UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS MEDICAL BRANCH

RONALD CLARK, District Judge

The court referred this matter to the Honorable Earl S. Hines, United States magistrate judge, for pretrial proceedings pursuant to General Order 05-07 on July 31, 2008. The court has received and considered the report of the United States magistrate judge, who recommends that the court deny plaintiff's motion to proceed in forma pauperis. No objections to the report and recommendation have been filed. Further, the court's independent review confirms that the magistrate judge's analysis is correct.

Accordingly, the magistrate judge's report is hereby ADOPTED. It is further

ORDERED that plaintiff's motion to proceed in forma pauperis (Docket No. 2) is DENIED. It is further

ORDERED that plaintiff shall tender the fee established by law for filing a civil action ($350.00) on or before December 10, 2008. If the filing fee is not tendered to the Clerk of Court within the extended time established, this action may be dismissed.

So ORDERED and SIGNED.
