Plaintiff,

No. 2:16-cv-0637 MCE CKD PS

v.

ORDER

SALLY JEWELL,

15

Defendant.

16
Plaintiff has not paid the fee ordinarily required to file an action in this court, and has filed

17
18

an incomplete application to proceed without prepayment of fees. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1914(a),

19

1915(a). Plaintiff indicates that she was previously employed for several years by the United

20

States Fish and Wildlife Service. Plaintiff asks for a waiver of fees because she asserts she

21

cannot afford expensive legal counsel and because she is disabled. However, plaintiff makes no

22

showing regarding her assets, whether she receives disability payments or pension payments, and

23

whether she receives income for the care she provides to her parents or other income. On the

24

present record, the court cannot make a determination of whether plaintiff is entitled to proceed in

25

forma pauperis. Plaintiff will be provided the opportunity to submit either the appropriate

26

affidavit in support of a request to proceed in forma pauperis or the appropriate filing fee.
