Filing 10
MINUTE entry before the Honorable Maria Valdez: Plaintiff has filed an amended Application to Proceed Without Prepaying Fees or Costs and a Financial Affidavit #7 . Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. section 1915, Plaintiff may proceed without prepaying if he or she cannot pay the required court fees and costs. See 28 U.S.C. section 1915(a)(1). "Although he must show that he cannot simultaneously pay court costs and provide for life's necessities, he 'need not be absolutely destitute in order to enjoy the benefit of [section] 1915.'" Garth-Richardson v. Univ. of Ill. at Chi., No. 03 C 5406, 2004 WL 726135, at *1 (N.D. Ill. Apr. 1, 2004) (quoting Zaun v. Dobbin, 628 F.2d 990, 992 (7th Cir. 1980)). According to the affidavit, Plaintiff has no income and has been living off of approximately $1250 per month from depleting IRA funds, thus satisfying the showing of indigency. Additionally, an initial review of the complaint does not reveal that it "(i) is frivolous or malicious; (ii) fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted; or (iii) seeks monetary relief against a defendant who is immune from such relief." See 28 U.S.C. section 1915(e)(2)(B). Plaintiff's amended Application to Proceed Without Prepaying Fees or Costs #7 is therefore granted. Mailed notice (lp, )

As a result, the Court cannot determine how her annual income compares to the federal poverty line. In Question Number 6, Plaintiff answered yes to the question about whether she has dependents, but did not provide any of the information requested in Question 6. Mailed notice. (dm, )
