Plaintiff Mary Bryant, proceeding pro se, filed this action on September 11, 2017. (ECF
18 No. 1.) Along with her complaint, Plaintiff filed an application to proceed in this action without
19 prepayment of fees. Upon review of the application, Plaintiff states that she receives wages of
20 $320.00 but does not indicate whether this is weekly, monthly, etc. Further, Plaintiff indicated
21 that she also receives pension, annuity, or life insurance payments but did not indicate the
22 amount received. Plaintiff also failed to answer the question whether she has any case in a
23 checking or savings account. Therefore, the Court is unable to determine if Plaintiff is entitled to
24 proceed without prepayment of fees in this action.
25
Accordingly, the Court will order Plaintiff to complete and file an Application to Proceed
26 in District Court Without Prepaying Fees or Costs (Long Form) – AO 239. If Plaintiff is
27 unwilling to complete and submit the long form application, Plaintiff must pay the filing fee in
28 full.
