v.

SECOND ORDER DIRECTING PLAINTIFF TO CURE DEFICIENCIES
Plaintiff, Claude McClain, is a prisoner in the custody of the United States Bureau
of Prisons at the Federal Prison Camp in Florence, Colorado. Mr. McClain initiated this
action by filing pro se a Prisoner’s Motion and Affidavit for Leave to Proceed Pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 1915 in a Habeas Corpus Action (ECF No. 3) and an Application for a Writ
of Habeas Corpus Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (ECF No. 1) claiming that he is being
denied proper medical treatment in violation of his Eighth Amendment rights. On July 3,
2013, the court entered an order directing Mr. McClain to cure certain deficiencies if he
wishes to pursue his claim in this action. More specifically, the court directed Mr.
McClain to file on the proper forms a Prisoner Complaint and a Prisoner’s Motion and
Affidavit for Leave to Proceed Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 and to submit in support of
the 28 U.S.C. § 1915 motion a certified copy of his inmate trust fund account statement
for the 6-month period immediately preceding the filing of this action and an
authorization to calculate and disburse filing fee payments.
On July 29, 2013, Mr. McClain filed on the proper form a Prisoner Complaint
(ECF No. 5). He also submitted a document (ECF No. 6) that includes a statement from
Mr. McClain regarding the other deficiencies he was ordered to cure and a certified
copy of his inmate trust fund account statement. Mr. McClain has not filed on the
proper form a Prisoner’s Motion and Affidavit for Leave to Proceed Pursuant to 28
U.S.C. § 1915 and he has not submitted an authorization to calculate and disburse filing
fee payments. Mr. McClain apparently alleges in the statement that he does not have
access to the necessary authorization form. In addition, the inmate account statement
Mr. McClain submitted is incomplete because the account statement does not include
information regarding the balance in the account.
Mr. McClain will be given one more opportunity to cure the remaining deficiencies
in this action. In order to cure the remaining deficiencies, he must file on the courtapproved form a Prisoner’s Motion and Affidavit for Leave to Proceed Pursuant to 28
U.S.C. § 1915 and he must submit a certified copy of his inmate trust fund account
statement for the 6-month period immediately preceding the filing of this action and a
signed authorization to calculate and disburse filing fee payments. Mr. McClain is
advised that the necessary authorization form to calculate and disburse filing fee
payments is included as part of the Prisoner’s Motion and Affidavit for Leave to Proceed
Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 form. Accordingly, it is
ORDERED that Mr. McClain cure the remaining deficiencies within thirty (30)
days from the date of this order. It is
2
FURTHER ORDERED that Mr. McClain shall obtain the court-approved
Prisoner’s Motion and Affidavit for Leave to Proceed Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 form
(with the assistance of his case manager or the facility’s legal assistant), along with the
applicable instructions, at www.cod.uscourts.gov. It is
FURTHER ORDERED that, if Mr. McClain fails to cure the remaining deficiencies
within the time allowed, the action will be dismissed without further notice. The
dismissal shall be without prejudice.
DATED July 29, 2013, at Denver, Colorado.
