IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
JOEY HOWELL,
Plaintiff,

ORDER

v.
Case No. 16-cv-837-jdp
ANTHONY BROADBENT, et al.
Defendants.

Plaintiff Joey Howell has filed a proposed civil complaint and requested leave to
proceed without prepaying the filing fee.

To evaluate plaintiff’s request to proceed with

prepayment of the filing fee, I must review a certified copy of plaintiff’s inmate trust fund
account statement (or institutional equivalent) for the six-month period immediately
preceding the filing of the complaint. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2).
For this case to proceed, plaintiff must submit the certified trust fund account
statement no later than July 29, 2016. If I find that plaintiff is indigent, I will calculate an
initial partial payment amount that must be paid before the court can screen the merits of
the complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2). Thereafter, plaintiff will be required to pay the
balance of the filing fee in installments.

ORDER
IT IS ORDERED that plaintiff Joey Howell may have until July 29, 2016 to submit a
trust fund account statement for the period beginning approximately December 29, 2015 and
ending approximately June 29, 2016. If, by July 29, 2016, plaintiff fails to respond to this

order, I will assume that plaintiff wishes to withdraw this action voluntarily. In that event,
the case will be closed without prejudice to plaintiff filing the case at a later date.

Entered this 8th day of July, 2016.
BY THE COURT:
