DAVIN D. ROLLINS Plaintiff, v. DR. CHARLES GRISDALE and DOCTOR GARBELMAN, Defendants.
ORDER
Plaintiff Davin Rollins, a prisoner at the Waupun Correctional Institution in Waupun, Wisconsin, has submitted a proposed complaint. He requests leave to proceed in forma pauperis. A decision on the request will be delayed until plaintiff pays an initial partial payment of the $350 filing fee as required by 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b) and the 1996 Prison Litigation Reform Act. Plaintiff's initial partial payment cannot be calculated at this time because he has not submitted a trust fund account statement with his complaint.
Plaintiff's complaint was submitted on July 31, 2012. His trust fund account statement should cover the six-month period beginning approximately January 31, 2012 and ending approximately July 31, 2012. Once plaintiff has submitted the necessary statement, I will calculate his initial partial payment and advise him of the amount he will have to pay before the court can screen the merits of his complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2). Plaintiff should show a copy of this order to prison officials to insure that they are aware they should send a copy of plaintiff's six-month trust fund account statement to this court.
ORDER
IT IS ORDERED that plaintiff Davin Rollins may have until August 23, 2012, in which to submit a certified copy of his trust fund account statement for the period beginning approximately January 31, 2012 and ending approximately July 31, 2012. If, by August 23, 2012, plaintiff fails to respond to this order, I will assume that he wishes to withdraw this action voluntarily. In that event, the clerk of court is directed to close this case without prejudice to plaintiff's filing his case at a later date.
