MEMORANDUM **

This is an appeal from the district court’s orders dismissing appellant’s civil rights complaint without prejudice, denying appellant’s motions for reconsideration, and denying appellant’s motion to recuse the district judge.

This court previously denied appellant’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis, and directed appellant (1) to pay the docketing and filing fees for this appeal; and (2) to show cause why the district court’s orders should not be summarily affirmed.

After appellant initially failed to pay the filing and docketing fees, this court dismissed the appeal for failure to prosecute. Appellant has now paid the fees and responded to the court’s order to show cause. Accordingly, the court grants appellant’s motion to reinstate.

The Clerk is directed to file appellant’s opening brief, received March 17, 2008, and appellant’s supplemental response, received May 1, 2008.
