IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
ANTHONY P. HEARD JR.,
Plaintiff,

ORDER

v.

Case No. 20-cv-555-jdp

TAYLOR, et al
Defendants.

Plaintiff Anthony P. Heard Jr. has filed a proposed civil complaint and requested leave
to proceed without prepaying the filing fee. To evaluate plaintiff’s request to proceed without
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 9, 2020. 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 Anthony P. Heard Jr. may have until July 9, 2020 to
submit a trust fund account statement for the period beginning approximately December 18,
2019 and ending approximately June 18, 2020. If, by July 9, 2020, 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 18th day of June, 2020.
