ORDER on ifp request: Amended Financial Affidavit due 6/2/2015. Signed by Magistrate Judge Peter A. Oppeneer on 5/12/2015. (jef),(ps)
IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
MELISSA SUE KING ,
Plaintiff,
ORDER
v.
Case No. 15-cv-257-wmc
ALLEN “RICK” MCGRAW, et al.
Defendants.
Plaintiff Melissa Sue King has requested leave to proceed without prepaying the filing
fee in this civil action for monetary and other relief.
From the affidavit of indigency
accompanying plaintiff’s proposed complaint, the court cannot determine whether plaintiff
qualifies for indigent status. In plaintiff’s affidavit, plaintiff states that she is unemployed,
has no income and is not married. However, plaintiff does not include information as to how
she is able to pay for her basic living expenses such as food, clothing and shelter. Without
such information, I am unable to conclude that plaintiff qualifies for indigent status.
Therefore, I will provide plaintiff with the opportunity to supplement her request for leave to
proceed without prepaying the filing fee by completing the enclosed affidavit of indigency. In
completing the affidavit, she should take care to state how she pays for basic necessities and
make sure the affidavit contains her actual gross monthly income from all sources for the last
12 months.
ORDER
IT IS ORDERED that plaintiff Melissa Sue King may have until June 2, 2015, in
which to amend her affidavit of indigency and return it to the court. Plaintiff should take
particular care to show where she receives the means to pay for basic necessities, such as food,
clothing and shelter. If plaintiff fails to provide this requested financial information in a
timely fashion, then the court will deny her request for leave to proceed without prepayment
of the filing fee for failure to show that she is indigent.
Entered this 12th day of May, 2015.
