Summary: The Defendant filed a motion to reconsider the Court’s order for payment of the statutory filing fee in an appeal. The Court denied the motion, finding that the Prison Litigation Reform Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1915, permits district courts to require the payment of a filing fee, to waive all fees, or to impose partial filing fees. The Court found that the Defendant has sufficient funds to pay the filing fee over time in accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 1915.
