1 On December 21, 2022, the Court instructed Mr. Perkins to submit a certified copy of his prison trust account statement for the six-month period immediately preceding the filing of his notice of appeal so that the Court could calculate his initial partial appellate filing fee pursuant to 28 U.S.C § 1915(b)(1). [Doc. 12]. Mr. Perkins filed a renewed IFP application on January 3, 2023, along with a copy of his inmate trust account statement. [Doc. 13, 13-1].

However, the copy submitted by Mr. Perkins is not a certified copy, and accordingly, the Court has calculated the initial partial appellate filing fee in accordance with the Henderson court’s instructions. 129 F.3d at 485 (“If the district court does not receive a certified copy of the prisoner’s account within 30 days of the notice of appeal, it shall calculate the initial appellate filing fee at $35 or such other reasonable amount warranted by available information.”).
