Plaintiff, No. CIV S-09-3504 MCE DAD P

vs.

HIGH DESERT S.P., et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a civil rights action pursuant to

42 U.S.C. § 1983. On January 4, 2010, plaintiff was directed to pay the filing fee or submit an

application to proceed in forma pauperis. In response to the court’s order, plaintiff has filed an

application to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915.

Plaintiff’s in forma pauperis application does not include a certified copy of

plaintiff’s prison trust account statement for the six-month period immediately preceding the

filing of the complaint in this action. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2). Plaintiff’s incomplete

application will be denied with leave to file a properly completed application to proceed in forma

pauperis.
