IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

BARBARA S. SMITH,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-07-00822 ALA P

vs.

J. PEREZ, et al.,

Defendant. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a civil rights action pursuant

to 28 U.S.C. § 1983, together with a request for leave to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to

28 U.S.C. § 1915. 

On June 22, 2007 plaintiff filed a notice of change of address with this court. On

August 10, 2007, this court ordered plaintiff to show cause as to why this action should not be

dismissed for plaintiff’s failure to complete her request to proceed in forma pauperis. On August

23, 2007, plaintiff filed a copy of her request to proceed in forma pauperis along with

documentation showing plaintiff had submitted her request to the appropriate prison official at

her prior institution on June 20, 2007. Plaintiff’s change of address, so close in time to the

submission of the document, likely caused plaintiff’s application to be incomplete.

complete with appropriate documentation from her current prison facility within 35 days. 

DATED: August 27, 2007
