ROSENSTENGEL, Chief Judge: On January 7, 2020, Hadley’s motion for leave to proceed in form pauperis (“IFP”) was denied as he has “struck out” under

(g) and did not meet the requirements of the imminent danger exception (Doc. 9). Hadley was ordered to pay the filing fee of $400.00 on or before January 21, 2020 and was warned that failure to comply would result in dismissal of the action.

To date, Hadley has failed to pay the filing fee. Therefore, this action is DISMISSED without prejudice for failure to comply with an Order of this Court. See FED. R. CIV. P. 41(b); Ladien v. Astrachan,

(7th Cir. 1997); Johnson v. Kamminga,

(7th Cir. 1994). Plaintiff’s obligation to pay the $400.00 filing fee for this action was incurred at the time the action was filed. See

(b)(1); Lucien v. Jockisch,

(7th Cir. 1998). Accordingly, the agency having custody of Hadley is directed to remit the $400.00 filing fee from his prison trust fund account if such funds are available. If he does not have $400.00 in his account, the agency must send an initial payment of 20% of the current balance or the average balance during the past six months, whichever amount is higher. Thereafter, the agency shall begin forwarding monthly payments of 20% of the preceding month’s income credited to Hadley’s trust fund account (including all deposits to the inmate account from any source) until the statutory fee of $400.00 is paid in its entirety. The agency having custody of Hadley shall forward payments from his account to the Clerk of Court each time his account exceeds $10.00 until the $400.00 filing fee is paid. Payments shall be mailed to: Clerk of the Court, United States District Court for
