ORDER GRANTING EXTENSION

OF TIME TO FILE IN FORMA

PAUPERIS APPLICATION

On August 16, 2007, plaintiff filed this pro se civil rights action. On

September 14, 2007, the clerk of the Court sent a notification to plaintiff that he had

not paid the appropriate filing fee of $350.00 or submitted a completed application

for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. The Court provided a copy of the correct

form for application to proceed in forma pauperis, along with a return envelope,

instructions, and a notification that the case would be dismissed if plaintiff failed to

pay the fee or file the completed application within thirty days. On October 18,

2007, plaintiff wrote a letter to the court stating that the prison trust office had not

soon as he had received it. The Court construes this as a request for an extension of

time to file the in forma pauperis application. (Docket No. 3)

Accordingly, the Court will extend the time for plaintiff to complete the in

forma pauperis application and provide the accompanying certificate of funds and a

six-month statement of his trust account. The application and documentation must

be filed with the Court no later than November 20, 2007. Plaintiff must submit his

accompanying documentation by the deadline, or the Court will dismiss the case

without prejudice for failure to pay the filing fee.
