Plaintiff,

ORDER

FOLSOM STATE PRISON,
Defendant.

16
17

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

18

U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff has not paid the required filing fee of $350.00 plus the $50.00

19

administrative fee nor has he filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis. See 28 U.S.C.

20

§§ 1914(a) & 1915(a). Plaintiff will be granted thirty days to pay the filing fee in full or submit a

21

properly completed application to proceed in forma pauperis.

22

Plaintiff is cautioned that the in forma pauperis application form includes a section that

23

must be completed by a prison official, and the form must be accompanied by a certified copy of

24

plaintiff’s prison trust account statement for the six-month period immediately preceding the

25

filing of this action.

26

Finally, plaintiff has filed a document entitled “Motion for a U.S. Marshal to Serve &

27

Summon all Parties in his Federal lawsuit.” (ECF No. 2.) Plaintiff is advised that the court is

28

required to screen any “complaint in a civil action in which a prisoner seeks redress from a
1

1

governmental entity or officer or employee of a governmental entity” before ordering service on

2

any defendant. 28 U.S.C. § 1915A. Therefore, plaintiff’s motion will be denied.

3

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

4

1. Plaintiff shall submit, within thirty days from the date of this order, either the $350.00

5

filing fee plus the $50.00 administrative fee or a properly completed application to proceed in

6

forma pauperis on the form provided with this order; plaintiff is cautioned that failure to comply

7

with this order or seek an extension of time to do so will result in dismissal of this action without

8

prejudice.

3. Plaintiff’s “Motion for a U.S. Marshal to Serve & Summon all Parties in his Federal

12

lawsuit” (ECF No. 2) is denied.
