Case No. 1:16-cv-00816-SMS
By motion filed June 13, 2016, Plaintiff Jenyne Ann Thornton, by her attorney, Melissa
Newel, seeks to proceed in forma pauperis. Plaintiff submitted an application which is incomplete.
18
Specifically, Plaintiff did not provide complete information concerning her employment status and
19
20
money received from other sources. Also, it appears Plaintiff’s application contains additional
21
page(s) which were not filed. Absent complete information regarding Plaintiff’s financial situation,
22
the Court cannot evaluate whether Plaintiff is sufficiently impoverished to justify proceeding without
23
paying the filing fee for her lawsuit.
24
Accordingly, the Court DENIES Plaintiff’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis. Plaintiff
25
shall either submit an amended and complete application1 to proceed in forma pauperis or pay the
26
filing fee to the Clerk of the Court within thirty (30) days of this order. If Plaintiff does not pay the

without further notice.
