FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

LEVI SMITH,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-05-1445 MCE JFM P

vs.

CLAIRE TESKE, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff, a county jail inmate proceeding pro se, has filed a civil rights action

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 together with a request for leave to proceed in forma pauperis

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. On his request to proceed in forma pauperis, that he has not

received any money from any source for the past twelve months. The copy of his jail trust

account statement filed on August 11, 2005 reflects numerous cash deposits to his trust account

during the six month period that preceded the filing of this action. Good cause appearing,

plaintiff will be given an opportunity to explain these discrepancies between his in forma

pauperis application and the trust account statement appended thereto. Plaintiff shall explain the

source of the cash deposits to his account and whether he expects to continue to receive funds

from those sources. Plaintiff is cautioned that Fed. R. Civ. P. 11 provides for imposition of

sanctions on parties who intentionally file false information with the court.
