Appeal from the United States District Court

Submitted February 15, 2011**
Before: CANBY, FERNANDEZ, and M. SMITH, Circuit Judges.
Dale Frank Maisano, an Arizona state prisoner, appeals pro se from the
district court’s order denying his application to proceed in forma pauperis. We
have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review for an abuse of discretion,
O’Loughlin v. Doe, 920 F.2d 614, 616 (9th Cir. 1990), and we affirm.

The district court did not abuse its discretion by denying Maisano’s
application because he failed to submit the required six-month prisoner trust fund
account statement. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2); Page v. Torrey, 201 F.3d 1136,
1139 (9th Cir. 2000) (“[P]risoner-plaintiffs seeking to proceed in forma pauperis
[must] submit a certified copy of their prisoner trust fund account statement for the
previous six months.”).
AFFIRMED.
