DEFENDANT

ORDER
Plaintiff has submitted a complaint for filing in this district, together with a request for
leave to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP”). ECF Nos. 1, 2. The undersigned finds that more
information is needed to rule on Plaintiff’s IFP application.
Plaintiff’s IFP application indicates that his wife earns $35,000.00 to $40,000.00 per year
from her employment. ECF No. 2. However, Plaintiff did not indicate the nature of his wife’s
employment and her monthly income (specifically, gross income and take-home pay). As such,
Plaintiff is directed to submit an amended IFP application providing more specific information
regarding his sources of income. Plaintiff is directed to file his amended IFP application by
August 15, 2013. Should Plaintiff fail to comply within the required period of time, his
complaint will become subject to summary dismissal for failure to obey a court order.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 1st day of August 2013.
