ORDER
/
16
Appellant is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a bankruptcy action before the
17
Ninth Circuit’s Bankruptcy Appellate Panel. The BAP has referred this matter to this district
18
court for the limited purpose of ruling on appellant’s request for leave to proceed in forma
19
pauperis. Because appellant is incarcerated, he is advised that he must follow the requirements
20
of 28 U.S.C. § 1915 which require a certificate completed by appellant’s institution of
21
incarceration, as well as a certified copy of his prison trust account statement for the six month
22
period immediately preceding the filing of the complaint. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2). Appellant
23
will be provided the opportunity to submit a completed in forma pauperis application and a
24
certified copy in support of his application.
