9 9 order Order on Motion for Leave to Proceed In Forma Pauperis Mon 04/29 1:56 PM
ORDER granting2 Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis. Plaintiff's counsel should note that the motion to proceed in forma pauperis is on an outdated version of the form used in this district. The current form is available on the Court's website at: https://ctd.uscourts.gov/sites/default/files/forms/IFP-for-Soc-Sec-Appeal-Rev-12-15-23.pdf. Future failures to use the correct financial affidavit form may result in denial of the request. Plaintiff has filed a motion seeking to proceed without payment of fees and costs, along with a financial affidavit. Plaintiff has fully completed the required information. Plaintiff asserts that Plaintiff is unable to afford to pay fees and costs. At this stage, such allegations are sufficient to establish that Plaintiff is unable to pay the ordinary filing fees required by the Court. 28 U.S.C. §1915(a)(1). Accordingly, Plaintiff's Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis is GRANTED. The Court has also reviewed the Complaint (ECF No. 1) pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §1915(e)(2) and finds the claim is sufficient to proceed to service of process on the defendant. Signed by Judge Maria E. Garcia on 4/29/24. (Esposito, A.)
