ORDER GRANTING APPLICATION
TO PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS
AND RECOMMENDATION FOR
REVIEW

Plaintiff,

v.

VALUE INN 22246,

12

Defendant.

13
14

Plaintiff, proceeding pro se, has filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis

15

(“IFP”) in the above-entitled action. Dkt. 1. After careful consideration of the application, the

16

governing law and the balance of the record, the Court ORDERS as follows:

17

(1)

Because plaintiff does not appear to have funds available to afford the $400.00

18

filing fee, he financially qualifies for IFP status pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(1). Therefore,

19

plaintiff’s IFP application, Dkt. 1, is GRANTED. However, the undersigned recommends

20

review under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B).

21

(2)

The Clerk of the Court is directed to send a copy of this Order to plaintiff and to

the Honorable James L. Robart.
DATED this 27th day of January, 2017.
