On April 22, 2010, petitioner filed two motions requesting in forma pauperis status on appeal. The first, docketed 16, was accompanied by an exhibit obviously intended for another case. The second, docketed 18, was accompanied by an affidavit which meets the requirements of 28 U.S.C. §1915(a)(1). Because of his status as a prisoner, however, petitioner must submit, in addition to the affidavit required by §1915(a)(1), "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 or notice of appeal, obtained from the appropriate official of each prison at which the prisoner is or was confined." 28 U.S.C. 1 vs. Joseph S. WARSHOLL, II, Respondent. ORDER IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA PATRICK MICHAEL KNOST, Petitioner, No. CIV S-08-2564 MCE CHS
