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 U.S.C.
§ 1915, the fee is to be paid as follows:
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
court as the first installment payment on the filing fee. This amount is twenty percent of
the 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 in the prisoner’s account for the 6-month period immediately preceding
the filing of the complaint/petition.

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
amount in the account exceeds ten dollars ($10.00). The prison trust account office should
continue to do this until the filing fee has been paid in full.
