ORDER
/

16

Plaintiff, an inmate at the Rio Cosumnes Correctional Center and proceeding pro

17

se, has filed a civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On March 27, 2012, the court

18

ordered plaintiff to file a new in forma pauperis application, to have a jail official complete a

19

section of the application form, and to provide a certified copy of his inmate trust account

20

statement. On July 3, 2012, plaintiff filed his in forma pauperis application; however, the section

21

to be completed by a jail official was not included and plaintiff failed to provide a certified copy

22

of his inmate trust account statement.1 The court will provide plaintiff with one final opportunity

23

to submit a proper in forma pauperis application and a certified copy of his prison trust account

24

statement.

Plaintiff provided an uncertified copy of his inmate trust account statement.

1

Also, on September 16, 2011, plaintiff filed a letter with the court requesting more

2

time “to serve all documents . . . [and] all exhibits[.]” (Doc. No. 4 at 1.) This request will be

3

denied as moot since on March 27, 2012, the court granted plaintiff additional time to submit a

4

proper in forma pauperis application and certified copy of his trust account statement. In

5

addition, by this order, the court is granting plaintiff further time to submit his documents.

6

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

7

1. Plaintiff’s September 16, 2011 request for an extension of time (Doc. No. 4) is

8

denied as moot;

9

2. Plaintiff shall submit, within thirty days from the date of this order, a properly

10

completed application to proceed in forma pauperis on the form provided with this order and a

11

certified copy of plaintiff’s inmate trust account statement for the six-month period immediately

12

preceding the filing of the complaint in this action. Plaintiff is cautioned that failure to comply

13

with this order will result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed without prejudice;

14

and

15

3. The Clerk of the Court is directed to provide plaintiff the court’s form

16

application requesting leave to proceed in forma pauperis by a prisoner for use in a civil rights

17

action.
