January 13, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 3 ORDER granting #2 Motion for Leave to proceed in forma pauperis. Plaintiff has filed a motion seeking to proceed without payment of fees and costs, which motion includes a sworn statement as to plaintiff's current financial circumstances. See Doc. #2 -1. Plaintiff has completed the required information, asserting that she is unable to afford to pay fees and costs. See generally id. Plaintiff states that she receives SAGA cash assistance, Section 8 housing assistance, and SNAP benefits. See id. at 2, 3, 4. Taken together, these benefits only just cover plaintiff's monthly expenses. See id. at 4.

Accordingly, plaintiff's #2 Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis is GRANTED. It is so ordered. Signed by Judge Sarah A. L. Merriam on 1/13/2020. (Scholfield, D.)
