UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

CARL CLAYVON CURRY, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

ADULT CORRECTIONAL HEALTH, et 

al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:23-cv-01170 KJM AC P 

ORDER 

 Plaintiff, a county jail inmate proceeding pro se, has filed a civil rights action pursuant to 

42 U.S.C. § 1983. The matter was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 

U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302. 

 On June 23, 2023, plaintiff was ordered to file a properly completed in forma pauperis 

application and a prisoner trust fund account statement, because the first one he had filed was 

deficient. ECF Nos. 2, 4 (IFP application docketed 6/20/23; court order, respectively). He was 

given thirty days to do so. ECF No. 4 at 2. Plaintiff neither filed the required documents nor 

responded to the court’s order in any way. As a result, on September 12, 2023, the court 

recommended that this matter be dismissed for failure to prosecute. ECF No. 6. 

 On September 18, 2023, plaintiff filed a second application to proceed in forma pauperis. 

ECF No. 7. It is deficient because once again, the certificate portion of the application is

incomplete. In addition, plaintiff has again failed to file a certified copy of his inmate trust 

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

See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2). 

 In light of plaintiff’s attempt to comply with the June 2023 order, it appears that he still 

wishes to prosecute this case. Accordingly, the undersigned will vacate the pending findings and 

recommendations order. In addition, plaintiff will be provided a final opportunity to submit the 

proper documents. 

 For the reasons explained above, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 

 1. The Clerk of Court is directed to send plaintiff a second Application to Proceed In 

Forma Pauperis By a Prisoner; 

 2. Plaintiff’s second application to proceed in forma pauperis (ECF No. 7), is DENIED 

as incomplete; 

 3. The findings and recommendations issued September 12, 2023 (ECF No. 6), are 

VACATED; and 

 4. Within thirty days from the date of this order, plaintiff shall file a completed affidavit 

in support of the request to proceed in forma pauperis on the form provided by the Clerk of Court, 

and a certified copy of the inmate trust account statement for the six-month period immediately 

preceding the filing of the complaint. 

 Plaintiff is cautioned that absent exigent circumstances, failure to comply with this 

order within the time allotted will result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed 

without prejudice.
