Plaintiff, a county jail inmate proceeding pro se, filed a civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 together with a request for leave to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915.

2. The Clerk of Court is directed to send plaintiff a new Application to Proceed In Forma Pauperis By a Prisoner; and
