APRIL GRIEGO,

Case No. 2:24-cv-00653-ART-NJK

Plaintiff(s),

ORDER

v.

[Docket No. 1]

CHAPS HOUSING ASSISTANT
PROGRAM, et al.,
Defendant(s).
Pending before the Court is Plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis. Docket

13 No. 1. The application is incomplete. Most significantly, the application does not answer Question
14 2, which requires Plaintiff to provide her current employer and her current pay or wages. Docket
15 No. 1 at 1. In the pending application, that section is blank. See id.
16

Accordingly, Plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis, Docket No. 1, is

17 DENIED without prejudice. No later than May 20, 2024, Plaintiff must either (1) file a fully
18 complete application to proceed in forma pauperis, on the correct form with complete financial
19 attachments; or (2) pay the $405 fee for filing a civil action. If Plaintiff has no employment
20 income, then the answer to Question 2 must so indicate. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS
21 ORDER MAY RESULT IN A RECOMMENDATION THAT THE CASE BE DISMISSED.
22

The Clerk’s Office is INSTRUCTED to send Plaintiff the approved form application to

23 proceed in forma pauperis by a non-prisoner, as well as the document entitled information and
24 instructions for filing an in forma pauperis application.
25

IT IS SO ORDERED.
