On that same day, the clerk of the Court sent a notification to Plaintiff that his application for leave to proceed in forma pauperis was insufficient because Plaintiff did not attach a copy of his prisoner trust account statement showing transactions for the last six months. The notification included the warning that the case would be dismissed if Plaintiff failed to respond within thirty days. On September 10, 2008, Plaintiff filed a request for an extension of time to file the necessary statement. (Docket No. 4.) Plaintiff also requested an "official exten[s]ion of times [sic] on summons and notice of complaint for 60 days." (Docket No. 5.)

The statement must be filed with the Court no later than October 18, 2008. Failure to comply with the Court's order in a timely manner will result in the dismissal of the case without prejudice for failure to pay the filing fee. Plaintiff's request for an extension of time regarding the summons and notice of complaint (Docket No. 5) is DENIED as premature since the complaint has yet to undergo an initial review.
