On April 12, 2016, the Court denied Plaintiff Isabel Maria Lucio’s application to proceed in

forma pauperis. Doc. 3. Because the application was incomplete, the Court could not evaluate
whether Plaintiff was sufficiently impoverished to justify proceeding without paying the filing fee
for his lawsuit. Plaintiff was ordered to pay the filing fee or re-file a completed application.
Plaintiff has since submitted an amended application which sets forth the showing required by 28
U.S.C. § 1915(a). Doc. 4.
Accordingly, the Court GRANTS Plaintiff’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis. The Clerk

22

of Court is directed to issue the summons and new case documents. The United States Marshal is

23

directed to serve a copy of the complaint, summons, and this order upon the defendant if requested by the

24

plaintiff.
