The district court did not abuse its discretion by dismissing the action
because Young failed to pay the filing fee and failed to comply with the deadline
set by the district court for remedying the deficiencies in his in forma pauperis
application. 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.”); James v. Madison Street Jail, 122 F.3d 27, 28 (9th Cir.
1997) (“[T]he rule for timely filing applicable to pro se prisoners . . . applies to the
filing of trust-account statements as required by § 1915(a)(2).”).
AFFIRMED.
