IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

RONALD KNUTSON,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-07-0981 LKK EFB P

vs.

LUCKY STORE, INC., et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff, a prisoner without counsel, has filed a complaint alleging civil rights violations. 

See 42 U.S.C. §1983.

To proceed with a civil action a plaintiff must pay the $350 filing fee required by 28

U.S.C. § 1914(a) or request leave to proceed in forma pauperis and submit the affidavit and trust

account statement required by 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a).

Plaintiff has neither paid the fee nor submitted a proper application for leave to proceed

in forma pauperis.

The court is unable to screen plaintiff’s complaint as plaintiff’s handwriting is illegible. 

Unless plaintiff submits a clearly printed or typed complaint, the court will be unable to discern

the content of his claims.
