Upon receipt, the Clerk is to then issue the summonses and the USMS is ordered is to serve the summonses on the Defendants. (TK, ilcd)

TEXT ORDER: GRANTING Plaintiffs renewed #3 Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis. In reviewing a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis, the Court must make two determinations. First, the Court must determine whether Plaintiff is unable to pay the filing fee associated with the case. If Plaintiff is unable to pay the filing fee, the Court must then determine if the complaint is frivolous or malicious. The Plaintiffs Motion to Proceed in forma pauperis was submitted under penalty of perjury and sufficiently demonstrates that the Plaintiff should be excused from paying the filing fee in this action. The Court is also obligated to give the Plaintiffs pro se pleadings a liberal construction and finds the Complaint is neither frivolous nor malicious. See Haines v. Kerner, 404 U.S. 519, 520-21 (1972). Accordingly, Plaintiffs renewed #3 Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis is GRANTED. Entered by Judge Michael M. Mihm on 8/24/2020. (KH1, ilcd)

| Filing 3 MOTION for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis by Plaintiff Breyon Grayson. Responses due by 8/31/2020 (JS, ilcd) |
| TEXT ORDER: DENYING Plaintiff's #2 Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis. In reviewing a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis, the Court must make two determinations (1) whether Plaintiff is unable to pay the filing fee associated with the case and (2) whether the complaint is frivolous or malicious. In regard to whether Plaintiff is able to pay the filing fee associated with the case, the #2 Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis, is not signed by the Plaintiff, and therefore does not fulfill the affidavit of poverty requirement of the in forma pauperis statute. 28 U.S.C.A. 1915(a). As a result, the Court DENIES Plaintiff's #2 Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis WITHOUT PREJUDICE and allows him twenty-one (21) days to refile an application in accordance with 28 U.S.C.A. 1915. Failure to file an amended motion or pay the filing fee will result in a dismissal of this lawsuit. Entered by Michael M. Mihm on 8/6/2020. (JS, ilcd) |
