ORDER

Plaintiff, an Alabama prison inmate proceeding pro se, filed
a Complaint under 42 U.S.C. ' 1983 together with a Motion to Proceed
Without Prepayment of Fees (Docs. 1, 2).

A review of Plaintiff=s

Motion to Proceed Without Prepayment of Fees reflects that it does
not include a copy of the institutional record of Plaintiff’s inmate
account reflecting transactions in his account for the six-month
period immediately preceding the filing of his Complaint on July 29,
2011.

See 28 U.S.C. ' 1915 (a)(2).

In addition, it does not include

a certification of the balance in his prison account signed by an
authorized officer at the institution.

Therefore, Plaintiff=s

Motion to Proceed Without Prepayment of Fees (Doc. 2) is DENIED
without prejudice.
Plaintiff is GRANTED leave to re-file his Motion to Proceed
Without Prepayment of Fees by October 12, 2011.

His new motion shall
