   ORDER: The Court has granted two extensions to pay the filing fee. Plaintiff has failed to meet either deadline. In plaintiff's February 16, 2024 letter requesting an extension to pay the filing fee 5, plaintiff stated that "[t]his extension will allow me time to collect money gained through a settlement in another copyright case that I will use to then pay the filing fees in Wright v. Breitbart et al. and Wright v. NBCUNIVERSAL et al." Based on these representations, the Court granted plaintiff's request and extended the deadline to February 27, 2024. Plaintiff provided a notice of voluntary dismissal and the Court reminded plaintiff of her obligation to pay the filing fee and further extended the payment deadline to March 8, 2024. The Court directs plaintiff to pay the overdue filing fee on or before March 20, 2024, and reminds plaintiff that failure to pay the fee is a violation of this Court's order. Ordered by Judge Natasha C. Merle on 3/13/2024. (copy mailed). (AG)
