UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION
MITCHELL E. ROSENTHAL,
Plaintiff,
Case No. 2:18-CV-10152
District Judge Paul D. Borman
Magistrate Judge Anthony P. Patti
v.
COMMISSIONER OF
SOCIAL SECURITY,
Defendant.
ORDER REQUIRING PLAINTIFF TO SUPPLEMENT HIS JANUARY 12,
2018 APPLICATION TO PROCEED IN DISTRICT COURT WITHOUT
PREPAYING FEES OR COSTS (DE 2)
On January 12, 2018, Mitchell E. Rosenthal filed a complaint (DE 1) for
judicial review of the Commissioner of Social Security’s December 19, 2017
decision. On the same day, he also filed an application to proceed in district court
without prepaying fees or costs (DE 2). Each of these filings was electronically
filed by attorney Kenneth F. Laritz (P23711).
This case has been referred to the undersigned. (DE 3.) Having reviewed
Plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis (DE 2), the Court concludes that
it is not in a position to rule at this time. The form application (AO 240) contains
answers to most questions, but is noticeably unresponsive as to question 2 regarding
employment and gross pay or wages. (DE 2.) Upon consideration, Plaintiff’s
application (DE 2) is HELD IN ABEYANCE. Within ten (10) days of the date of
this order, Plaintiff SHALL file a supplemental application which fully answers the
questions asked, preferably with the assistance of his counsel.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: January 17, 2018
