Case No. 1:17-cv-767 DAD-BAM
REQUIRING PLAINTIFF TO FILE LONG
FORM APPLICATION TO PROCEED IN
FORMA PAUPERIS

TWENTY DAY DEADLINE

Defendant.

14

Plaintiff Donald Warner, appearing pro se, filed this action challenging his Medicaid and

15

pension benefits on June 5, 2017. Plaintiff did not pay the filing fee in this action and instead

16

filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. However,

17

Plaintiff’s application was not adequately completed. Plaintiff’s application does not reflect all

18

the amount of income which is being received by his household. For that reason, the Court is

19

unable to determine if he is able to proceed in this action without prepayment of fees.

20

Accordingly, the Court will order Plaintiff to complete and file an Application to Proceed

21

in District Court Without Prepaying Fees or Costs (Long Form) – AO 239. If Plaintiff is

22

unwilling to complete and submit the long form application, Plaintiff must pay the filing fee in

23

full.

24

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:

25

1.

(Long Form) to Plaintiff;

26
27
28

The Clerk of the Court is directed to forward an in forma pauperis application

2.

Within twenty (20) days of the date of this order, Plaintiff shall either (1) pay the
$400.00 filing fee for this action, or (2) file an application to proceed in forma
1

1
2

pauperis without prepayment of the fee; and
3.

If Plaintiff fails to comply with this order, this action shall be dismissed.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
