ORDER
JANE VIRDEN UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Plaintiff Mario Rodricus McGaughy, proceeding pro se, filed the instant action challenging the conditions of his confinement pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. In initiating this action, however, Plaintiff failed to either pay the filing fee or submit an application to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP”). Accordingly, Plaintiff is DIRECTED to either pay the filing fee for this action or submit a complete IFP application, including a certified copy of Plaintiff's trust fund account statement for the 6-month period preceding the filing of the complaint, see 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2), within twenty-one (21) days from the date of this Order. Plaintiff's failure to do so will result in the dismissal of this action. The Clerk of Court is directed to send Plaintiff a copy of the Court's standard IFP form for Plaintiff's completion.
SO ORDERED,
