v.
WARREN COUNTY JAIL
Defendant.
No. 3:14-1568
Judge Trauger
O R D E R
The plaintiff is an inmate at the Warren County Jail in
McMinnville, 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 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 of four
hundred dollars ($400) 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.
