IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
CLINT ABRAHAM WILSON RAGLAND,
Plaintiff,

ORDER

v.
Case No. 17-cv-900-wmc
DANE COUNTY JAIL,
Defendant.

Plaintiff Clint Abraham Wilson Ragland 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 December 13, 2017. 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 Clint Abraham Wilson Ragland may have until
December 13, 2017 to submit a trust fund account statement for the period beginning
approximately May 27, 2017 and ending approximately November 27, 2017.

If, by

December 13, 2017, 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 28th day of November, 2017.
