MEMORANDUM
AND ORDER

Plaintiff, a non-prisoner, filed a Motion for Leave to Proceed in Forma Pauperis.
(Filing No. 2.) Upon review of Plaintiff’s Motion, the Court finds that Plaintiff is financially
eligible to proceed in forma pauperis. Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED that leave to proceed in forma pauperis is provisionally granted,
and the Complaint shall be filed without payment of fees. Plaintiff is advised that the next
step in his case will be for the Court to conduct an initial review of his claims to determine
whether summary dismissal is appropriate under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2). The Court will
conduct this initial review in its normal course of business.

DATED this 8th day of June, 2015.
BY THE COURT:
s/Laurie Smith Camp
Chief United States District Judge
