IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEBRASKA
CHRISTOPHER NICHOLAS EBERT,
Plaintiff,
vs.
CAROLYN W. COLVIN, Acting
Commissioner of the Social Security
Administration,

8:14-CV-242
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER ON
APPLICATION TO PROCEED IN
FORMA PAUPERIS

Defendant.
The plaintiff, a non-prisoner, has filed an application for leave to
proceed in forma pauperis (filing 2). The plaintiff's application demonstrates
that he is eligible to proceed in forma pauperis.
IT IS ORDERED:
1.

Plaintiff's application to proceed in forma pauperis (filing 2) is
granted, and the complaint shall be filed without payment of fees.

2.

The Clerk of the Court shall send a copy of this memorandum
and order together with three summons forms and three copies of
Form 285 to the plaintiff's attorney of record for service of process
on the United States.

3.

If requested to do so, the United States Marshal shall serve all
process in this case without prepayment of fees from the plaintiff.
In making such a request, plaintiff's counsel must complete the
Marshal's Form 285, to be submitted to the Clerk of the Court
with the completed summons forms. Without those forms, service
of process by the Marshal cannot occur.

4.

Upon receipt of the completed summons forms and Forms 285,
the Clerk shall sign the summonses and forward them, together
with copies of the complaint, to the U.S. Marshal for service on
the United States.

5.

This order is entered without prejudice to the Court later
entering an order taxing costs in this case. No one, including any
plaintiff, is relieved by this order from the obligation to pay or to
reimburse taxable costs after this action is over.

Dated this 18th day of August, 2014.
BY THE COURT:
John M. Gerrard
United States District Judge
