IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
WILLIAM LEE LYNCH,
Plaintiff,

ORDER

v.

Case No. 22-cv-528-wmc

WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT OF
CORRECTIONS, PROBATION AND
PAROLE, et al.
Defendants.

Plaintiff William Lee Lynch 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 October 11, 2022. 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 William Lee Lynch may have until October 11, 2022 to
submit a trust fund account statement for the period beginning approximately March 15, 2022
and ending approximately September 15, 2022. If, by October 11, 2022, 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 16th day of September, 2022.
