PRIETO, et al., Defendants. / By order filed April 8, 2010, plaintiff was ordered to file an in forma pauperis affidavit within thirty days. The thirty days passed and plaintiff did not respond to the court's order. Accordingly, on May 26, 2010, the court ordered plaintiff to show cause within fourteen days why this action should not be dismissed for his failure to comply with the April 8, 2010 order. On June 1, 2010, plaintiff filed what purports to be an application to proceed in forma pauperis. However, this document is a declaration by plaintiff stating that on May 5, 2010 he was transferred from the Yolo County Jail to the Deuel Vocational Institution (DVI). Attached to this pleading is a copy of plaintiff's trust account statement from the Yolo County Jail. This document does not comply the requirements of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a). //// 1 ORDER IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA ANTHONY RICHARDO TURNER, Plaintiff, No. 2:10-cv-0756 KJN P
