forma pauperis, plaintiff must file an affidavit itemizing his assets and stating he is unable to

or institutional equivalent, for the six month period immediately preceding the filing of the

complaint. 28 U.S.C. 1915 § 1915(a)(1), (2). Plaintiff’s trust account statement is not certified

and the certificate portion of his application to proceed in forma pauperis, which is the

prejudice.
