Mikkilineni was prohibited from filing “any civil appeal or other
civil filing in this court unless he obtains written permission
to do so from a judge of this court” until he pays the $105
sanction. Mikkilineni has not paid the $105 sanction, and he has
not requested leave to file the instant IFP motion. Accordingly,
Mikkilineni’s appeal is DISMISSED. 5TH CIR. R. 42.3.1.2. The
clerk of this court is directed to return unfiled any submission
that is inconsistent with this order. The appellees’ motion to
dismiss is DENIED as moot.
