UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KHARY J. COOK,

Plaintiff,

v.

SOLANO COUNTY SHERIFF’S 

OFFICE, CUSTODY DIVISION,

Defendant.

No. 2:16-cv-0536 KJN P

ORDER

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

U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff requested leave to proceed in forma pauperis, with certification from the 

jail official, and provided the certified trust account statement. However, plaintiff has not

properly completed the forma pauperis affidavit.

1

See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1914(a), 1915(a). Plaintiff 

failed to complete questions 3b through 3f on the application. Therefore, plaintiff will be 

provided the opportunity to submit a completed affidavit in support of his request to proceed in 

forma pauperis. Plaintiff is not required to obtain certification on his renewed application, but 

should note that the certification was previously provided on March 2, 2016 (ECF No. 2 at 2.) 

 

1

 If leave to file in forma pauperis is granted, plaintiff will still be required to pay the filing fee 

but will be allowed to pay it in installments. Litigants proceeding in forma pauperis are not 

required to pay the $50.00 administrative fee.
