Defendants.

16
17

Plaintiff, a former jail inmate, is now housed in the Napa State Hospital, and filed a civil

18

rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On December 19, 2017, plaintiff was directed to

19

either pay the court’s filing fee, or to file an application to proceed in forma pauperis. On

20

December 28, 2017, plaintiff filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28

21

U.S.C. § 1915. However, the certificate portion of the application was not completed by prison

22

officials, and plaintiff did not file a certified copy of his inmate trust account statement for the six

23

month period immediately preceding the filing of the complaint. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2).

24

Therefore, plaintiff will be provided the opportunity to submit a certified copy of his inmate trust

25

account statement.

26

In accordance with the above, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff shall submit,

27

within thirty days from the date of this order, a certified copy of his inmate trust account

28

statement for the six month period immediately preceding the filing of the complaint. Plaintiff’s

1

failure to comply with this order will result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed

2

without prejudice.
