IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JAMES M. URSINO, No. CIV S-05-1815-FCD-CMK-P

Plaintiff, 

vs. ORDER

PERRY RENIFF,

Defendant.

 /

Plaintiff, an inmate proceeding pro se, has filed a civil rights action pursuant to 42

U.S.C. § 1983. On November 29, 2005, the court issued an order regarding fee status in this

case. Specifically, the court directed plaintiff to pay the full filing fees for this action or submit

an application to proceed in forma pauperis within 30 days. In light of problems with prior in

forma pauperis applications submitted in this case, the court’s November 29, 2005, order

provided plaintiff with the specific requirements for presenting the court with a proper in forma

pauperis application. In particular, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2), any prisoner seeking

leave to proceed in forma pauperis “. . . shall submit a certified copy of the trust fund account

statement (or institutional equivalent) for the prisoner for the 6-month period immediately

preceding the filing of the complaint . . .” On April 6, 2006, the court granted plaintiff an

additional 30-day opportunity to satisfy this requirement. 

On April 25, 2006, plaintiff filed a document apparently seeking additional time

to comply. The request will be granted. Until plaintiff either pays the statutory filing fee or

submits a complete application to proceed in forma pauperis, this action cannot proceed any

further. Once again, plaintiff is cautioned that failure to fully comply may result in dismissal. 

See Local Rule 11-110. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff’s request for an extension of time (Doc. 27) is granted;

2. Plaintiff shall submit, within 30 days from the date of this order, the full

filing fees for this action or a completed application for leave to proceed in forma pauperis on

the form provided by the Clerk of Court; 

3. Any application for leave to proceed in forma pauperis submitted to the

court must be accompanied by a certified copy of plaintiff’s prison/jail trust account statement;

and

4. The Clerk of the Court is directed to send plaintiff a new Application to

Proceed In Forma Pauperis By a Prisoner.

DATED: May 3, 2006.
