10 10 order Order on Motion for Leave to Proceed In Forma Pauperis Fri 05/09 3:53 PM
ORDER GRANTING3 Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis. A federal court is authorized under 28 U.S.C. sec. 1915(a)(1) to permit an indigent party to proceed in a civil action without prepaying the filing fee if the party "submits an affidavit that includes a statement of all assets [she] possesses [showing] that [she] is unable to pay such fees or give security therefor." After reviewing Plaintiff's motion and affidavit, the Court is satisfied that Plaintiff is unable to pay the filing fee. Therefore, the Court GRANTS the motion to proceed in forma pauperis (Doc. 3). The Court notes, however, that should it become apparent that the action is frivolous or malicious at any time in the future, it may dismiss the case pursuant to 28 U.S.C. sec. 1915(e)(2)(B)(i). Signed by Magistrate Judge Mark A. Beatty on 5/9/2025. (klh2)
