UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

JOSEPH CHARLES GOLDEN, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

WILLIAM P. LUKENBILL, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:16-cv-2146 AC P 

ORDER 

 Plaintiff, a Placer County Jail detainee, has, through counsel, filed a civil rights complaint 

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, together with a request for leave to proceed in forma pauperis 

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. Plaintiff’s in forma pauperis application is incomplete. 

First, although plaintiff has submitted a copy of his jail trust account statement, it is only 

for the period commencing June 25, 2016. While this may mark the commencement of plaintiff’s 

incarceration, if he has been incarcerated for a longer period he must submit a copy of his trust 

account statement for the six-month period immediately preceding the filing of his complaint. 

See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2). 

Second, plaintiff’s in forma pauperis application has not been fully completed, e.g., no 

answers are provided on the second page of the application. Plaintiff will be provided another 

opportunity to submit a fully completed application to proceed in forma pauperis.

 2. Plaintiff shall, within thirty days from the filing date of this order, submit a fully 

completed in forma pauperis application that includes a copy of his trust account statement for the 

six-month period immediately preceding the filing of his complaint, or file a statement indicating 

why the six-month period does not apply in this case.

this action be dismissed without prejudice.
