BRANDAN DRISCOLL,

ORDER

DISCUSSION

14

On November 20, 2014, Plaintiff filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis and

15

submitted a civil rights complaint pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. (ECF No. 1, 1-1). On

16

December 1, 2014, this Court denied Plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis

17

without prejudice because it was incomplete. (ECF No. 2 at 1). Plaintiff had not submitted an

18

inmate account statement. (Id.). The Court granted Plaintiff 30 days from the date of that

19

order to file a fully complete application to proceed in forma pauperis. (Id. at 2).

20

On December 8, 2014, Plaintiff filed a notice to the Court and attached his inmate

21

account statement for the past six months. (ECF No. 3). On December 30, 2014, Plaintiff filed

22

a motion to extend time for another 30 days to submit a financial certificate and a six month

23

accounting statement. (ECF No. 4). The Court denies Plaintiff’s motion for an extension of

24

time because Plaintiff already has filed his inmate account statement. However, if Plaintiff

25

would like to update his application to proceed in forma pauperis and submit a new application,

26

financial certificate, and inmate account statement, he may do so within 30 days of the date

27

of this order.
