UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 10 KENDALL BURTON, No. 2:19-cv-1461 JAM AC P Plaintiff, v. ORDER JIMENEZ, et al., Defendants. 16 Plaintiff, a former state prisoner proceeding in forma pauperis, is represented by counsel. He seeks relief pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This proceeding was referred to this court by Local Rule 302 pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). On July 16, 2021, plaintiff filed notice with the court that he has been released from prison. ECF No. 16. As a result, plaintiff’s continued in forma pauperis status must be considered. A prisoner granted in forma pauperis status when he filed an action is not liable for the full amount of the filing fee upon release from prison. However, upon release from prison, he must be allowed to apply to proceed under general in forma pauperis provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(1). See DeBlasio v. Gilmore, 315 F.3d 396, 399 (4th Cir. 2003); see also Webb v. Lambert, No. CV…
