9 Before the Court is pro se plaintiff Nathan Campbell’s complaint. (ECF No. 1-1). The Clerk docketed Campbell’s complaint on May 17, 2017, noting that plaintiff submitted his complaint to this Court, but he did not pay the required filing fee or file an application to proceed in forma pauperis. (ECF No. 1). On May 24, 2017, the Clerk sent Campbell an advisory letter informing him that he must, “comply with our Local Rules of Practice for the U.S. District Court District of Nevada” and that if he wishes to proceed without paying a filing fee (in forma pauperis), he, “must complete an application to proceed in forma pauperis on this Court’s approved form.” (ECF No. 2 at 1). Plaintiff has not to date paid the filing fee or filed an in forma pauperis application.
17 The plaintiff is a self-represented litigant, so the Court will give him one final opportunity to comply with this Court’s rules: plaintiff must either pay the filing fee or complete the in forma pauperis application within 30 days of this Order or the Court will dismiss this case. If the plaintiff wishes to proceed in forma pauperis and fills out the application, the Court will screen1 the complaint at that time.
21 // Section 1915 requires that if the Court grants an application to proceed in forma pauperis, the Court must review plaintiffs’ complaint to determine whether the complaint is frivolous, malicious, fails to state a claim on which the Court may grant relief, or if the complaint seeks damages against a defendant who is immune from that relief. 28 25 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B).
1 Accordingly, 2 IT IS ORDERED that plaintiff Nathan Campbell has until Friday, June 5, 2020 to either pay the || filing fee or file an in forma pauperis application on this Court’s approved form. Failure to pay the filing || fee or file the in forma pauperis application will result in dismissal.
5 IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that if the plaintiff does not pay the filing fee, but timely files an in forma pauperis application, the Clerk of the Court is directed NOT to issue summons or file the ||Complaint. The Court will screen the complaint at that time.
8 NOTICE 9 Pursuant to Local Rules IB 3-1 and IB 3-2, a party may object to orders and reports and recommendations issued by the magistrate judge. Objections must be in writing and filed with the Clerk " of the Court within fourteen days. LR IB 3-1, 3-2. The Supreme Court has held that the courts of appeal may determine that an appeal has been waived due to the failure to file objections within the specified time. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 142 (1985). This circuit has also held that (1) failure to file Is objections within the specified time and (2) failure to properly address and brief the objectionable issues waives the right to appeal the District Court's order and/or appeal factual issues from the order of the District Court. Martinez v. YIst, 951 F.2d 1153, 1157 (9th Cir. 1991); Britt v. Simi Valley United Sch. 1g || Dist., 708 F.2d 452, 454 (9th Cir. 1983).
