(a). See Andrews v. Cervantes,

(9th Cir. 2007); 4 || Rodriguez v. Cook,

(9th Cir. 1999). 5 In the nearly eight months since he filed his Complaint, Mr. Turner has not paid the 6 required $400 filing fee or filed a motion to proceed in forma pauperis.” Consequently, 7 ||Mr. Turner’s Complaint (ECF No. 1) is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE for 8 || failure to pay the requisite filing fee.

(a) (Judicial Conference Schedule of Fees, District Court Misc. Fee Schedule, § 14 (eff. Dec. 1, 2016). The additional $50 administrative fee does not apply to persons granted leave to proceed IFP. /d. 25 > In his Complaint, see ECF No. 1 at 4, Mr. Turner requests a “fee waiver” on the ground that he “has no 26 || money [and] he is just getting out of the Central Jail and getting over a[n] injur[Jed hand, face and head > ... caused by the” Defendants. Not only is this request improper under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 7 7(b)(1), which requires that “[a] request for a court order must be made by motion,” but it also fails to 28 meet the necessary requirements of

(a), which requires the movant to “submit[] an affidavit that includes a statement of all assets.”
