Plaintiff Raffiel A. Norwood is appearing pro se in this action against the Commissioner
of Social Security filed on February 8, 2018. On that same day, Plaintiff filed applications to
proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. (ECF No. 2, 3). However, on March 23,
2018, the Court found that Plaintiff’s application demonstrates that he may be receiving income
well above the poverty threshold, and therefore ordered Plaintiff to complete and file an
Application to Proceed in District Court Without Prepaying Fees or Costs (Long Form) – AO

25
239. (ECF No. 4). In lieu of submitting a long form IFP application, Plaintiff paid the $400
26
filing fee.

Accordingly, having received Plaintiff’s filing fee, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT the
28
