4

The prisoner shown as the plaintiff or petitioner on the attached order has filed a civil
action in forma pauperis in this court and owes to the court a filing fee. Pursuant to 28
5
U.S.C. § 1915, the fee is to be paid as follows:
6

The initial partial filing fee listed on the attached order should be deducted by the
prison trust account office from the prisoner’s trust account and forwarded to the clerk of the
7
court as the first installment payment on the filing fee. This amount is twenty percent of the
8 greater of (a) the average monthly deposits to the prisoner’s account for the 6-month period
immediately preceding the filing of the complaint/petition or (b) the average monthly balance
9 in the prisoner’s account for the 6-month period immediately preceding the filing of the
complaint/petition.
United States District Court
For the Northern District of California

10

Thereafter, on a monthly basis, 20 percent of the preceding month’s income credited
to the prisoner’s trust account should be deducted and forwarded to the court each time the
11
amount in the account exceeds ten dollars ($10.00). The prison trust account office should
12 continue to do this until the filing fee has been paid in full. If the prisoner does not have
sufficient funds in his/her account to pay the initial partial filing fee, the prison trust account
13 office should forward the available funds, and carry the balance forward each month until the
amount is fully paid.
14

If the prisoner has filed more than one complaint, (s)he is required to pay a filing fee for each
15 case. The trust account office should make the monthly calculations and payments for each
case in which it receives an order granting in forma pauperis and these instructions.
16

The prisoner’s name and case number must be noted on each remittance. The initial partial
filing fee is due within thirty days of the date of the attached order. Checks should be made
payable to Clerk, U.S. District Court and sent to Prisoner Accounts Receivable, U.S. District
18 Court, 450 Golden Gate Avenue, Box 36060, San Francisco, CA 94102.
