Defendants.

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a civil rights action pursuant to 42

18

U.S.C. § 1983. On April 21, 2015, and again, on May 12, 2015, plaintiff was directed to submit a

19

completed application to proceed in forma pauperis. Plaintiff has now filed a request for leave to

20

proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. Plaintiff has not, however, obtained the

21

certification required on the application form. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2). Therefore, plaintiff

22

will be provided the opportunity to submit the completed application and the certified copy in

23

support of his application to proceed in forma pauperis.

24

In accordance with the above, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

25

1. Plaintiff shall submit, within thirty days from the date of this order, the certification

26

required on the application form. Plaintiff’s failure to comply with this order will result in a

27

recommendation that this action be dismissed without prejudice.
