UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Plaintiff, a former prisoner proceeding pro se, filed this civil rights action pursuant to 42 

U.S.C. § 1983 on May 27, 2014. Plaintiff also filed a motion seeking leave to proceed in forma 

pauperis, but the form application was not complete. In his application, Plaintiff failed to indicate 

whether or not he was currently employed. Additionally, although Plaintiff indicated that he received 

money from rent payments, interest or dividends, he failed to state the amount received and what he 

expected to continue to receive. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Within forty-five (45) days from the date of service of this order, Plaintiff shall file the 

attached non-prisoner application to proceed in forma pauperis, completed and signed, or in 

the alternative, pay the $400.00 filing fee for this action;

2. No action in this case will be taken until Plaintiff files his completed application or paid 

the filing fee;
