ORDER DENYING AS MOOT PLAINTIFF'S
REQUESTS FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO
FILE IN FORMA PAUPERIS DOCUMENTS;
DIRECTING CLERK OF COURT TO FILE
A COPY OF DOCKET NO. 21 FROM CASE
NO. C 11-01975 INTO
CASE NO. C 11-02058
Plaintiff, a state prisoner currently incarcerated at California State Prison - Solano, filed the above pro se civil rights actions pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. In both actions, Plaintiff seeks leave to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP). And, in both actions, Plaintiff has been granted several extensions of time to comply with the Court's requirement that he complete his IFP applications by providing copies of his prisoner trust account statement and a signed Certificate of Funds.
On October 11, 2011, Plaintiff filed, in case No. C 11-01975, a trust account statement and signed Certificate of Funds. See Docket no. 21. Two days later, Plaintiff filed a form application requesting an extension of thirty days to file an unspecified pleading; on the last page of the form, Plaintiff clarifies that he is seeking the extension of time to file the requisite IFP application documents. Because, however, Plaintiff filed the necessary IFP application documents in that case on October 11, 2011, his request for an extension of time is DENIED as moot.
Similarly, on October 13, 2011, Plaintiff filed, in case No. C 11-02058, a request for an extension of thirty days to file the requisite IFP application documents in that case. See Docket no. 31. Good cause appearing, the Court DIRECTS the Clerk of the Court to file a copy of the IFP application documents entered as Docket no. 21 in case No. C 11-01975 into case No. C 11-02058. Thus, no further IFP application documents are required in case No. C 11-02058, and Plaintiff's request for an extension of time to file the documents in that case is DENIED as moot.
As the Court now has received all of the documents necessary for review of Plaintiff's IFP applications, the Court will rule by separate order on Plaintiff's requests to proceed IFP in the above actions.
This Order terminates Docket no. 22 in C 11-01975, and Docket no. 31 in C 11-02058.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
