SECOND ORDER TO SUBMIT NEW

APPLICATION TO PROCEED IN FORMA

PAUPERIS AND CERTIFIED COPY OF

TRUST ACCOUNT STATEMENT OR

PAY FILING FEE

ORDER FOR CLERK TO SEND TWO

COPIES OF THIS ORDER TO PLAINTIFF

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se in a civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C.

§ 1983. On July 19, 2006, the court ordered plaintiff to submit a new application to proceed in forma

pauperis and a certified copy of his trust account statement, or pay the $350.00 filing fee. On August

3, 2006, plaintiff submitted an application to proceed in forma pauperis. However, plaintiff’s application

to proceed in forma pauperis did not include the required original signature by an authorized officer of

the institution of incarceration. Additionally, plaintiff has not submitted a certified copy of his prison

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

28 U.S.C. § 1915. 

Plaintiff advises the court he has had difficulty obtaining the requested documentation. Plaintiff

will be provided an additional opportunity to comply with the court’s order to submit a new application

to proceed in forma pauperis and a certified copy of his trust account statement, or to pay the $350.00

filing fee.

It is ultimately plaintiff’s responsibility to comply with the court’s order by following

institutional procedures or otherwise assuring that the court receives the required documents or the filing

fee. Plaintiff is directed to provide a copy of this order to the prison trust office. Should plaintiff require

additional time to comply with the court’s order, plaintiff should file a request for an extension of time.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The Clerk’s Office shall send to plaintiff the form for application to proceed in forma

pauperis, and two copies of this order. Plaintiff is to provide one copy to the prison trust office.

2. Within thirty (30) days of the date of service of this order, plaintiff shall submit a

completed application to proceed in forma pauperis and an original certified copy of his prison trust

account statement for the six month period immediately preceding the filing of the complaint, or in the

alternative, pay the $350.00 filing fee for this action. 

Failure to comply with this order will result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
