Case No. 17-cv-03976-SI
ORDER RE: COMPLAINT

v.
NANCY A. BERRYHILL,
Defendant.

On July 14, 2017, plaintiff filed a complaint entitled “Complaint for Judicial Review of

11
United States District Court
Northern District of California

10

Decision of Commissioner of Social Security,” and an application to proceed in forma pauperis.

12

Dkt. Nos. 1, 3. However, the complaint does not appear to state a claim. The Court cannot tell

13

whether there was a decision by the Commissioner against the plaintiff on a specific issue. It also

14

appears that there may be two people—Theodore Lee and Shelton Eaves—trying to bring a claim.

15

The Court ORDERS plaintiff to file a new complaint by August 8, 2017. The new

16

complaint should say whether the Commissioner of Social Security made a decision against

17

him on a certain issue. If there is more than one person trying to bring a claim, each person

18

should file his or her own complaint. The Court will rule on the application to proceed in forma

19

pauperis after plaintiff files a new complaint. Plaintiff is encouraged to contact the Legal Help

20

Center. Plaintiff may make an appointment by calling [phone] or by signing up in the

21

appointment book located on the table outside the door of the Legal Help Center at in the federal

22

building at 450 Golden Gate Avenue, 15th Floor, Room 2796, San Francisco, CA 94102. Picture

23

ID is required to enter the federal building.
