ORDER GRANTING IFP
APPLICATION

Defendants.

15
16

Plaintiff, proceeding pro se, filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP) in the

17

above-entitled action. Dkt. 1. Because Plaintiff does not appear to have funds available to

18

afford the $402 filing fee, Plaintiff financially qualifies for IFP status pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §

19

1915(a)(1). Therefore, Plaintiff’s IFP application, Dkt. 1, is GRANTED. However, the

20

undersigned recommends review by the assigned District Judge under 28 U.S.C. §

21

1915(e)(2)(B). See, e.g., McGlown v. Melburg Financial Group, Inc., C19-0029-RSL; McGlown

22

v. State of Washington, C19-1658-RSM; McGlown v. Department of Homeland Security, No.
