Case No. 2:16-cv-00618-JCM-CWH
ORDER

This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff Donovan Smith’s (“plaintiff”) renewed Application to
Proceed In Forma Pauperis (doc. # 6), filed May 9, 2016.

17

Under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2) and Local Rule LSR 1-2, plaintiff must complete an application to

18

proceed in forma pauperis for prisoners, and attach both an inmate account statement for the past six

19

months and a properly executed financial certification. Plaintiff has submitted a renewed application to

20

proceed in forma pauperis, but has not completely filled out section 2 of the application form. Because the

21

information provided for review is incomplete, this Court is unable to determine whether plaintiff can

22

afford the filing fee required to pursue the instant action.

23
24

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff’s renewed Application to Proceed In
Forma Pauperis (doc. # 6) is denied without prejudice.

25

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of Court shall mail a blank application to plaintiff.

26

Plaintiff shall have until June 6, 2016 in which to submit a completed application that includes the

27

information discussed in this order, along with plaintiff’s inmate account statement for the past six months

28

and a properly executed financial certification, or pay the $400.00 filing fee. Failure to comply with this

1

order will result in a recommendation that this case be dismissed.

2

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of Court shall retain plaintiff’s complaint.
