Therefore, the trust account statement must include the time period from August 6, 2005 until February

certified copy of his prison trust account statement for the six month period immediately preceding the

filing of the complaint, or in the alternative, pay the $250.00 filing fee for this action. Failure to comply

2. The Clerk is directed to send two (2) copies of this order to plaintiff, one for

plaintiff to keep, and one for plaintiff to give to a prison official; and

3. Plaintiff is directed to give a copy of this order to the appropriate prison official

when he requests the copy of his trust account statement for the court.
