                     ON MOTION
                 ______________________

                        ORDER
     R. Wayne Johnson moves for leave to proceed in forma
pauperis. The United States moves for a 21-day extension
of time, until August 21, 2014, the file its response brief.
    Johnson is incarcerated. Pursuant to the Prisoner
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, this court may not author-

prepayment of fees. 28 U.S.C. § 1915. A prisoner is no

longer afforded the alternative of proceeding without
payment of filing fees, but must, in time, pay the $505
filing fee in its entirety. * When funds exist, an initial
partial payment must be made consisting of 20% of the
greater of (a) the average monthly deposits to the prison-
er’s account or (b) the average monthly balance in the
prisoner’s account for the six-month period immediately
preceding the filing of the notice of appeal. 28 U.S.C.
§ 1915(b)(1). Thereafter, the prisoner is required to make
monthly payments of 20% of the preceding month’s in-
come credited to the prisoner’s account.         28 U.S.C.
§ 1915(b)(2). The agency with custody of the prisoner
must forward payments from the prisoner’s account each
time the amount in the account exceeds $10 until the
$505 filing fee is paid in full. Id.
    By separate letter, the custodian of Johnson’s prison
account is being directed to make the necessary arrange-
ments to forward the filing fee to the court.
    Accordingly,
    It Is Ordered That:
    (1) The motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis
is denied.
    (2) The motion for an extension of time is granted.




    * The court notes that Mr. Johnson signed an earlier
version of Federal Circuit Form 6A, authorizing payment
of this court’s filing fee from his account. On December 1,
2013, the court increased its filing fee. Thus, Mr. John-
son’s account will be charged the current fee of $505.
