Plaintiffs,
MEMORANDUM
AND ORDER

vs.
BRENDA OSLER,
Defendant.

Plaintiffs, non-prisoners, filed a Motion for Leave to Proceed in Forma
Pauperis. (Filing No. 2.) Upon review of Plaintiffs’ Motion, the court finds that
Plaintiffs are financially eligible to proceed in forma pauperis.1
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that leave to proceed in forma pauperis is
granted, and the Complaint shall be filed without payment of fees. Plaintiffs are
advised that the next step in their case will be for the court to conduct an initial
review of their 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 20th day of November, 2017.
BY THE COURT:
s/ Richard G. Kopf
Senior United States District Judge

The court notes that co-Plaintiff, Charles Swift, was granted leave to proceed in forma
pauperis in a separate pending civil action, Swift v. Williams, Case No. 8:17CV331.
