Plaintiff,
v.

ORDER

JOHNATHAN SHELDON,
Defendant.

16
17

Plaintiff is proceeding in this action pro se. This matter was accordingly referred to the

18

undersigned by E.D. Cal. 302(c)(21). Plaintiff has requested leave to proceed in forma pauperis

19

(“IFP”) pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. ECF No. 2.

20

Plaintiff’s IFP application does not make the showing required by 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(1).

21

According to the application, plaintiff received money from “Disability or workers compensation

22

payments” during the past 12 months. ECF No. 2 at 1 ¶ 3(d). However, plaintiff fails to disclose

23

“the amount received and what you expect you will continue to receive.” See Id. at 1-2.

24

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

25

1. Plaintiff’s request to proceed IFP (ECF No. 2) is DENIED without prejudice to its

26

renewal with all entries on the form completed.

27

2. Plaintiff is granted 30 days from the date of this order to renew the IFP application in

28

proper form, or to pay the filing fee. Plaintiff is cautioned that failure to timely renew the IFP in
1

1

proper form, or to pay the filing fee, may result in a recommendation that this action be

2

dismissed.
