FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

GRANVILL K. BELL, III,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-07-0113 DFL DAD P

vs.

JEANNE WOODFORD, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a civil rights action pursuant to

42 U.S.C. § 1983. On March 22, 2007, plaintiff was directed to submit an application to

proceed in forma pauperis. In response to the court’s order, plaintiff has filed an application to

proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915.

Plaintiff’s in forma pauperis application does not include a certified copy of

plaintiff’s prison trust account statement for the six-month period immediately preceding the

filing of the complaint in this action and a prison official’s certification. See 28 U.S.C.

§ 1915(a)(2). Plaintiff’s incomplete application will be denied with leave to file a properly

completed application to proceed in forma pauperis.
