IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
TIMOTHY LEE STEWART, SR.,
Plaintiff,

ORDER

v.
Case No. 24-cv-598-jdp
JANE/JOHN DOE(S), BELOIT POLICE
DEPARTMENT,
Defendants.

Plaintiff Timothy Lee Stewart, Sr. has filed a proposed civil complaint. Plaintiff seeks to
commence this lawsuit without prepayment of the filing fee pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. From
the affidavit of indigency plaintiff has submitted, I find that plaintiff is unable to prepay the fees and
costs of commencing this action or to give security therefor.

IT IS ORDERED that:
1.

Plaintiff Timothy Lee Stewart, Sr.’s petition for leave to proceed without prepayment

of fees is GRANTED.
2.

No further action will be taken in this case until the court has screened the complaint

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 to determine whether the case must be dismissed because the
complaint is frivolous or malicious, fails to state a claim on which relief may be granted or seeks
monetary relief against a defendant who is immune from such relief. Once the screening process is
complete, a separate order will issue.
Entered this 28th day of August, 2024.
BY THE COURT:

United States Magistrate Judge
