CHANDRA KISHOR, Plaintiff, v. JOHN STOLLER, et al., Defendants.
ORDER
JEREMY D. PETERSON UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Plaintiff, a county inmate proceeding pro se, has filed a civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and a request for leave to proceed in forma pauperis under 28 U.S.C. § 1915. Plaintiff's filings are, however, incomplete: The certificate portion of the in forma pauperis request, which must be completed by plaintiff's institution of incarceration, has not been completed, and plaintiff has not filed a certified copy of the inmate trust account statement for the six-month period immediately preceding the filing of the complaint. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2). I will give plaintiff an opportunity to submit a completed in forma pauperis application and a certified copy in support of the application.
In accordance with the above, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
1. Plaintiff shall submit, within thirty days from the date of this order, a completed affidavit in support of the request to proceed in forma pauperis on the form provided by the Clerk of Court, and a certified copy of the inmate trust account statement for the six-month period immediately preceding the filing of the complaint;
2. The Clerk of Court is directed to send plaintiff a new Application to Proceed In Forma Pauperis By a Prisoner; and
3. Plaintiff's failure to comply with this order may result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed without prejudice.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
