IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

BRANDON RUIZ,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S 07-2236 LKK CMK P

vs.

KAREN KELLY, et al., ORDER

Defendants.

 /

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

to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On January 4, 2008, the undersigned issued findings and recommendations

recommending that this action be dismissed for lack of prosecution and failure to comply with

court rules and orders for plaintiff’s failure to either submit a completed application for leave to

proceed in forma pauperis or the full filing fee for this action. (Doc. 6.) Plaintiff has filed

objections to these findings and recommendations. (Doc. 7, 8.) 

Plaintiff states in his objections that the application for leave to proceed in forma

pauperis, and the required certified copy of his prison trust account were completed and sent to

the court on or about November 27, 2007. Neither has been received by the court and docketed

in this case.
