forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. Plaintiff has not, however, filed a certified copy of

his prison trust account statement for the six month period immediately preceding the filing of the

23

24

1915(a)(2). Plaintiff will be provided the opportunity to submit the completed application and the

certified copy in support of his application to proceed in forma pauperis.

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

27

1. Plaintiff shall submit, within thirty days from the date of this order, a certified copy of

28

his prison trust account statement for the six month period immediately preceding the filing of the

complaint and the certification required on the application form. Plaintiff’s failure to comply

2

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

2. The Clerk of the Court is directed to send plaintiff a new Application to Proceed In

4

Forma Pauperis By a Prisoner.
