Plaintiff is a prisoner without counsel seeking relief for alleged civil rights violations. See 42 U.S.C. § 1983. He requests an extension of time to file a certified copy of his prison trust account statement pursuant to the court's July 22, 2008 order. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 6(b).
Section 1915(a)(2) requires "a prisoner seeking to bring a civil action without prepayment of fees or security therefor, in addition to filing the affidavit filed under paragraph (1), shall submit a certified copy of the trust fund account statement (or institutional equivalent) for the prisoner for the 6-month period immediately preceding the filing of the complaint . . ., obtained from the appropriate official of each prison at which the prisoner is or was confined." Plaintiff has not submitted the required trust account statement.
Plaintiff's August 19, 2008, request is granted and plaintiff has 30 days from the date this order is served to file a certified copy of his prison trust account statement. Failure to comply with this order will result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed.
So ordered.
