fee must include a certified copy of an inmate trust fund account statement (or institutional
equivalent) for the six-month period beginning approximately February 28, 2017 through the

1.

Petitioner Jeffrey P. Lepsch may have until September 22, 2017, to pay

the $5 filing fee or submit a properly supported motion for leave to proceed without
prepayment of the filing fee.
