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

18

U.S.C. § 1983. On September 12, 2016, plaintiff was directed to complete the application form in

19

support of his request to proceed in forma paupers. Plaintiff filed a request for leave to proceed in

20

forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915; however, the second page of the application was

21

missing. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2). Plaintiff was provided an opportunity to submit the

22

completed application in support of his application to proceed in forma pauperis on November 9,

23

2016. (ECF No. 17.) Plaintiff was ordered to submit, within thirty days from the date of that

24

order, a completed affidavit in support of his request to proceed in forma paupers. (Id.) Plaintiff

25

was warned that failure to comply with the order would result in a recommendation that this

26

action be dismissed without prejudice. (Id.)

The thirty day deadline has long passed and plaintiff has not submitted the completed
