Filing 9 FINANCIAL AFFIDAVIT by Courtney Green. (Fanelle, N.) |
Filing 8 NOTICE OF INSUFFICIENCY. The plaintiff has filed a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis; in other words, he seeks to commence a federal lawsuit without pre-paying the filing fee. A federal law, 28 U.S.C. 1915, permits him to do so if, among other things, he files an affidavit demonstrating his inability to pay and a certified copy of his inmate trust account statement for the six month period preceding his complaint.In this case, the plaintiff has filed the necessary documents, but a number of entries in his trust account statement demonstrate that his application to proceed in forma pauperis has not been filled out with the ''particularity, definiteness and certainty'' that the law requires. Escobedo v. Applebees, 787 F.3d 1226, 1234 (9th Cir. 2015). While the plaintiff accurately stated his trust account balance on his application form, he also wrote that he has received zero dollars from any sources in the past twelve months other than his job working as a barber while incarcerated. His trust account statement, however, contains well over $8,000 in deposits over the past six months, including a $7,246 deposit on July 19, 2022.In determining if a plaintiff's financial circumstances qualify for in forma pauperis status, courts consider not only his personal resources, but also resources that an applicant ''has or can get from those who ordinarily provide the applicant with the necessities of life.'' Fridman v. City of New York, 195 F. Supp. 2d 534, 537 (S.D.N.Y. 2002). The court cannot fully evaluate the plaintiff's application unless and until it knows who made the deposits into his account, and that person's resources to pay the filing fee. The plaintiff is therefore directed to file another application form that accurately sets forth the amount of money he has received and identifies the source of these deposits, along with a statement of that person's (or persons') financial resources. In other words, if, say, the deposits came from a family member, the plaintiff must say so, and must explain that family member's financial resources and ability to pay the fee. In particular, the plaintiff is directed to clarify the source of the $7,246 deposit. If he does not do so by November 29, his case may be dismissed. Finally, the plaintiff is respectfully reminded that the application form is signed under penalty of perjury and all of his entries on the form must be true, correct, and complete. Dismissal due by 11/29/2022 Signed by Judge Thomas O. Farrish on 11-8-2022.(Corriette, M.) |
