JOAN M. AZRACK, District Judge:
On April 6, 2017, plaintiff Thomas J. Chisholm, II filed a complaint in this Court against
Walmart Incorporated, the Walmart Board of Directors, Doug C. McMillon, Greg Foran, David
Cheesewright, Hamid Tabibzada, Kathy, Carol, Thea, Alan Yamaji, David, Carlos, and Travis
pursuant to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as codified, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e17 (“Title VII”) and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as codified, 42 U.S.C. §§
12112–12117 (“ADA”) together with an application to proceed in forma pauperis. (See Docket
Entry Nos. 1–2.)
Upon review of the declaration accompanying plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma
pauperis, the Court finds that plaintiff is qualified to commence this action without prepayment
of the filing fee. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a) (1). Accordingly, plaintiff’s request to proceed in
forma pauperis is GRANTED.
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff is granted leave to file the complaint without
prepayment of the filing fee or security therefor; and

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of Court must forward to the United States
Marshal Service for the Eastern District of New York copies of plaintiff’s summonses, complaint
and this Order for service upon the named defendants without prepayment of fees; and
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of Court must mail a copy of this Order to
the plaintiff.
SO ORDERED.
