MEMORANDUM OPINION
SIMANDLE, Chief District Judge
Plaintiff Rajkeith H. Reed seeks to bring this civil action in forma pauperis ("IFP"). IFP Application, Docket Entry 1-1.
According to the application submitted by Plaintiff, Plaintiff earns $3,500 per month. Id. After taking into consideration the listed monthly expenses, it appears Plaintiff is able to pay the $350 filing fee and $50 administrative fee. His application to proceed in forma pauperis is therefore denied. This matter shall be administratively terminated pending submission of the filing and administrative fees.
Plaintiff indicates he spends $3,150 per month; however, that number includes $500 per month on "recreation, entertainment, newspapers, magazines, etc." Plaintiff therefore can pay the filing and administrative fees without being deprived of life's necessities. --------
An appropriate order follows. December 9 , 2016
