v.

Defendants.
No. 3:13-1192
Judge Campbell
O R D E R
The plaintiff is an inmate at the West Tennessee State
Penitentiary in Henning, Tennessee. He has submitted a pro se
complaint (Docket Entry No.1) under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and an
application to proceed in forma pauperis (Docket Entry No.2).
A prisoner seeking pauper status must include “a certified
copy
of
the
trust
fund
account
statement
(or
institutional
equivalent) for the prisoner for the 6-month period immediately
preceding the filing of the complaint” along with his application
to
proceed
in
forma
pauperis.
28
U.S.C.
§
1915(a)(2).
Unfortunately, the plaintiff has neglected to provide such a
statement.
Accordingly, the plaintiff is hereby GRANTED thirty (30) days
from the date of entry of this order on the docket in which to
either pay the full filing fee ($400) or submit the aforementioned
certified statement from the custodian of his inmate trust account.
The plaintiff is forewarned that, should he fail to timely
comply with the instructions of the Court, his application to
proceed in forma pauperis will be denied, the filing fee will be
assessed against him and collected from his inmate trust account,
and this action will be dismissed for failure to comply with the
instructions of the Court and for want of prosecution. McGore v.
Wrigglesworth, 114 F.3d 601, 605 (6th Cir.1997); Rule 41(b), Fed.
R. Civ. P.
It is so ORDERED.
