ORDER REQUIRING PLAINTIFF TO 

SUBMIT COMPLETED APPLICATION TO

PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS OR PAY

FILING FEE

Plaintiff Bennie Ray Brown (“Plaintiff”), proceeding pro se, filed the instant civil rights

action on May 14, 2007. He also submitted an application to proceed in forma pauperis. 

However, the application was incomplete because Plaintiff failed to sign the application under

penalty of perjury.

On May 24, 2007, the Court ordered Plaintiff to submit a completed application to

proceed in forma pauperis. On July 2, 2007, Plaintiff submitted a declaration in which he states

that the Court sent him an application to proceed in forma pauperis for a prisoner. He explains

that he is not in custody and submitted the declaration instead of the application.

Plaintiff’s declaration is not sufficient, however. Therefore, he is ORDERED to submit a

completed application to proceed in forma pauperis, or pay the $350.00 filing fee, within thirty

(30) days of the date of service of this order. The Clerk of the Court shall send Plaintiff the

application appropriate for a pro se plaintiff not in custody.
