UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SHANE MYRON REYES,

Plaintiff,

v.

CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF 

CORRECTIONS, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:15-cv-0140 KJN P

ORDER

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

U.S.C. § 1983. On February 3, 2015, plaintiff was directed to complete the application form and 

submit a certified copy of his prison trust account statement for the six month period immediately 

preceding the filing of the complaint. Plaintiff has now filed a request for leave to proceed in 

forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. Plaintiff has not, however, filed a certified copy of 

his prison trust account statement for the six month period immediately preceding the filing of the 

complaint and obtained the certification required on the application form. See 28 U.S.C. § 

1915(a)(2). Therefore, plaintiff will be provided the opportunity to submit the completed 

application and the certified copy in support of his application to proceed in forma pauperis.
