UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

ANTWONE DORNELL GOOLSBY, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

JOE LIZARRAGA, 

Defendant. 

No. 2:15-cv-2616-EFB P 

ORDER 

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel in an action brought under 42 

U.S.C. § 1983. He has submitted an affidavit requesting leave to proceed in forma pauperis 

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(1). He has also submitted a trust account statement, but it is not 

certified and is outdated by over six months. 

 Section 1915(a)(2) requires “a prisoner seeking to bring a civil action without prepayment 

of fees or security therefor, in addition to filing the affidavit filed under paragraph (1), 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 . . . , obtained 

from the appropriate official of each prison at which the prisoner is or was confined.” 28 U.S.C. 

§ 1915(a)(2) (emphasis added).
