He can spend 3 grand to try and get on a TV show but uses tax payers money to file his lolsuits,
Is there anyway this could come back to haunt him due to he has listed on other legal filings how much he has spent on various projects?
Pretty much this. Russ files IFP precisely because he wastes what little money he has on entirely frivolous pursuits that will get him nowhere. It's the sad fact of life that people these days don't want to acknowledge because it might hurt their precious feelings: some poor people (a very good number of them, really) are poor because they're really bad with money and don't use it wisely. In other words, they do it to themselves.no.
the courts grant IFP status based on your personal income. if your monthly (or yearly) income is below a certain level, you qualify for IFP. how you actually spend your income doesn't interest them.
the only way he'd get in trouble over his IFP status is if he had lied to the court by stating that he has less income than he actually has, or if he failed to report major financial assets to the court, and i do not think he has done anything like that.
i think the courts really do not want to bother with micromanaging the finances of every poorfag who wants to file something, and getting into arguments like "you claim you are a pauper, but there you are spending money on nonsense!" would just destroy the entire concept of IFP because in practice the overwhelming majority of poor people constantly throw away money on frivolous nonsense like drugs, cigarettes, alcohol, hookers, gambling, etc.
Russell will forever file IFP, because he's a brain-dead hobgoblin who flushes his money away on hookers and unrealistic dreams of grandeur, rather than saving it up for something worthwhile. He'll never rise up above being a janitor at Wal-Mart or wherever the fuck it is he works now because he's just that monumentally lazy, narcissistic, and delusional. The state can't deny him poorfag status because of his spending, because that would then exclude the majority of poorfags from being able to file.
