UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

EDWARD TORRES,

Plaintiff,

v.

JAYSON QUICK, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:22-cv-01536-EPG (PC)

ORDER DIRECTING PLAINTIFF TO 

SUBMIT APPLICATION TO PROCEED IN 

FORMA PAUPERIS OR PAY FILING FEE 

WITHIN 45 DAYS

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

1983. On November 30, 2022, Plaintiff submitted a hand-written application to proceed in forma 

pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. (ECF No. 2).1 However, Plaintiff’s application does not 

include all the necessary sections. Under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b), Plaintiff is still responsible for 

paying the filing fee, and the funds are to be collected from his trust account (when funds are 

available). Therefore, Plaintiff must authorize Madera County Jail to collect funds from his trust 

account and forward those funds to the Court.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

Within forty-five (45) days of the date of service of this order, Plaintiff shall submit the 

attached application to proceed in forma pauperis, completed and signed, or in the alternative, 

pay the $402.00 filing fee for this action. 

1 The Court notes that Plaintiff included his date of birth and social security number in the application. 

(ECF No. 2, p. 2). Plaintiff should not include this information on his public filings. Additionally, the Clerk of Court 

is directed to redact Plaintiff’s date of birth and social security number from the filing. This information is included 

at ECF No. 2, p. 2, lines 25 and 26.

to comply with this order will result in dismissal of this action.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
