However, to be sure that Plaintiff is provided the benefit of the doubt, the Court construes these documents as a challenge to Plaintiff’s conditions of confinement filed pursuant to Bivens v.

Plaintiff will be directed to cure the following if he wishes to pursue any claims in this Court in this action. Any papers that Plaintiff files in response to this Order must include the civil action number on this Order. If, however, Plaintiff does not intend to proceed with an action regarding the conditions of his confinement at this time, he may elect to dismiss this action or clarify the purpose of submitting the documents to this Court. 28 U.S.C. § 1915 Motion and Affidavit: (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) (9) (10) X X X X is not submitted is missing affidavit is missing certified copy of prisoner’s trust fund statement for the 6-month period immediately preceding this filing is missing certificate showing current balance in prison account is missing required financial information is missing authorization to calculate and disburse filing fee payments is missing an original signature by the prisoner is not on proper form names in caption do not match names in caption of complaint, petition or habeas application other: Plaintiff may in the alternative pay the $400 filing fee in full in advance Complaint, Petition or Application: (11) is not submitted (12) X is not on proper form is missing an original signature by the prisoner (13) (14) is missing page nos.
