                           ORDER AND JUDGMENT *


Before GORSUCH, O’BRIEN, and PHILLIPS, Circuit Judges.


      Scott Kobel filed a pro se complaint against various Kansas prison officials

under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. As required by statute, the district court screened



      *
         After examining the brief and appellate record, this panel has determined
unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of
this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2) and 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G). The case is
therefore ordered submitted without oral argument. This order and judgment is
not binding precedent except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata,
and collateral estoppel. It may be cited, however, for its persuasive value
consistent with Fed. R. App. P. 32.1 and 10th Cir. R. 32.1.

                                        -2-
Mr. Kobel’s complaint to determine whether he stated a non-frivolous basis for

legal relief. 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(a), (b); see also Jones v. Bock, 

,

213-16 (2007). Finding none, the district court warned Mr. Kobel that if he did

not correct his complaint and pay the required filing fee, his suit would be

dismissed. Mr. Kobel never complied and the district court entered judgment

dismissing Mr. Kobel’s complaint without prejudice. Mr. Kobel then filed a

motion for reconsideration under Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b)(6) but the district court

denied it. It is this denial Mr. Kobel now appeals.

      Mr. Kobel argues that the district court should have reinstated his claims

because he changed addresses and never received the district court’s warning.

But a movant seeking relief under Rule 60(b)(6) must “show extraordinary

circumstances justifying the reopening of a final judgment.” Gonzalez v. Crosby,

, 535 (2005) (internal quotation marks omitted). The district court

found no such circumstances here because nothing prevented Mr. Kobel from

apprising the district court of his new location or inquiring about the status of his

lawsuit. Neither are we given any reason to think the district court’s analysis or

conclusion amounts to a reversible abuse of discretion. Mr. Kobel’s motion to

proceed in forma pauperis is therefore denied and this appeal is dismissed. This

appeal counts as a strike for purposes of the Prison Litigation Reform Act.

See Jennings v. Natrona Cnty. Det. Ctr. Med. Facility, 

, 780

(10th Cir. 1999); Johnson v. Standifird, 400 F. App’x 369, 371 (10th Cir. 2010).

                                         -3-
Mr. Kobel is reminded that he must make immediate payment of the unpaid

balance of his appellate filing fee. All other motions are denied.
