ORDER

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a civil rights action pursuant to 42 

U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff has not paid the required filing fee of $350.00 plus the $52.00

properly completed application to proceed in forma pauperis. The court notes that plaintiff 

submitted a certified copy of his prison trust account statement. However, he has not included 

with his trust account an application to proceed in forma pauperis. Plaintiff will be given thirty 

days leave to either pay the filing fee in full or submit a properly completed in forma pauperis 

application.
