OPINION AND ORDER
PETER OPPENEER, Magistrate Judge.
Judgment was entered in this case on October 31, 2014 granting summary judgment in favor of defendants and dismissing this case. Now plaintiff Jackie Carter has filed a notice of appeal. (Dkt. # 100). Plaintiff has not paid the $505 appellate docketing fee, so this court construes plaintiff's appeal to include a request for leave to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis. The court cannot consider this motion, however, because it lacks supporting documentation regarding his eligibility for indigent status. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2). For his appeal to proceed, plaintiff must either pay the $505 appellate docketing fee within twenty days or submit a certified inmate trust fund account statement (or institutional equivalent) for the six-month period immediately preceding the filing of his appeal.
ORDER
IT IS ORDERED that, plaintiff Jackie Carter may have until December 19, 2014 to either (1) pay the $505 appellate docketing fee; or (2) submit a certified copy of his inmate trust fund account statement, in compliance with 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(2). Failure to comply as directed may result in the dismissal of his appeal without further notice.
