DEFENDANTS
ORDER

By Order [35] dated April 13, 2016, the Court observed Plaintiff had retained counsel to represent
him in this action and, therefore, ordered Plaintiff to show cause why his IFP status should not be revoked
and why he should not be required to promptly pay the $400.00 filing fee for this action. The Court
directed that should Plaintiff desire to continue to proceed as a pauper in this case, his response must
include an updated financial affidavit in accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(1). Plaintiff filed his
response and an updated IFP application, see Doc. 38, on April 25. The Court has reviewed Plaintiff’s
response and updated IFP application and finds Plaintiff meets the financial requirements for IFP status
under § 1915 and, therefore, will not be required to prepay the filing fee for this action.
SO ORDERED this 4th day of May, 2016.
