Defendants.

No. 4:16CV1484 JAR

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

Plaintiff, a prisoner, moves for leave to proceed in forma pauperis in this civil action,
filed under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2), a party seeking such leave is
required to submit a certified copy of his prison trust account statement for the six-month period
immediately preceding the filing of the complaint. Plaintiff has not done so. A "certified copy"
is one that has been certified by an authorized prison officer that it is a true and correct copy.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, within thirty (30) days from the date of this Order,

plaintiff must submit a certified copy of his prison trust account statement for the six-month
period immediately preceding the filing of the complaint.

Dated this 22nd day of September, 2016.
