AZRACK, District Judge:
On November 28, 2017, pro se plaintiff Eduardo D. Perez commenced this action against
Live Nation Entertainment (“Defendant”) pursuant to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,
42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17 (“Title VII”) alleging discrimination and retaliation in
employment. Accompanying the complaint is an application to proceed in forma pauperis.
Upon review of the declaration accompanying plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma
pauperis, the Court finds that plaintiff’s financial status qualifies him to commence this action
without prepayment of the filing fee. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(1). Accordingly, plaintiff’s
application 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; 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 summons, complaint
and this Order for service upon the Defendant without prepayment of fees; and
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of Court mail a copy of this Order to the
plaintiff.
SO ORDERED.
