LARRY McGUIRE and MARTINEZ CARTER Plaintiffs, v. JERALE FAHY, et al. Defendants.
JUDGE HAYNES
ORDER
The Court has before it a pro se prisoner complaint (Docket Entry No.l) under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and an application to proceed in forma pauperis (Docket Entry No.2) from Larry McGuire. However, the remaining Plaintiff, Martinez Carter, has neither paid the fee required for the filing of the complaint ($350) nor submitted a properly completed application to proceed in forma pauperis.
Accordingly, Martinez Carter is hereby GRANTED thirty (3 0) days from the date of entry of this order on the docket in which to either pay the civil filing fee of three hundred fifty dollars ($350.00) or submit an application to proceed in forma pauperis along with a certified copy of his inmate trust account statement for the previous six month period. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2). The Clerk will provide Martinez Carter with a blank application to proceed in forma pauperis along with a copy of Administrative Order No. 93.
The plaintiff, Martinez Carter, is forewarned that, should he fail to comply with these instructions within the specified period of time, the Court will presume that he is not a pauper, assess his share of the filing fee and order its collection from Plaintiff's inmate trust account, and dismiss his claims from the lawsuit for want of prosecution. McGore v. Wrigglesworth, 114 F.3d 601, 606 (6th Cir. 1997).
It is SO ORDERED.
