ORDER
(1) Following the denial of his motion to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP
motion”), the appellant, James Arthur Biggins, was instructed to pay the Court’s
filing fee by November 30, 2018, or else his appeal would be dismissed. Biggins
did not pay the filing fee. Instead, he filed a motion for rehearing en banc of the
Court’s order denying his IFP motion. Biggins’ motion for rehearing en banc was
stricken on the basis that the denial of an IFP motion is not subject to reargument.*
(2) Biggins was granted an extension of time until December 7, 2018, to
pay the filing fee and was advised that his failure to pay the fee would result in the

dismissal of his appeal without further notice. Biggins has not paid the filing fee.
The appeal shall be dismissed.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the appeal is
DISMISSED.
