IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

LEE EDWARD HARRIS,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-10-1177 FCD EFB P

vs.

HIGH DESERT STATE PRISON, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff, a prisoner without counsel, has filed a complaint alleging civil rights violations. 

See 42 U.S.C. § 1983. He has submitted an affidavit requesting leave to proceed in forma

pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(1). 

Section 1915(a)(2) requires “a prisoner seeking to bring a civil action without

prepayment of fees or security therefor, in addition to filing the affidavit filed under paragraph

(1), shall submit a certified copy of the trust fund account statement (or institutional equivalent)

for the prisoner for the 6-month period immediately preceding the filing of the complaint . . . ,

obtained from the appropriate official of each prison at which the prisoner is or was confined.” 

Plaintiff has not submitted a certified copy of his trust account statement or the institutional

equivalent. He may comply with this requirement by having prison officials complete the

“Certificate” portion of the form application for leave to proceed in forma pauperis.
