IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA

Karen Archibald,

Plaintiff,

v. 

Commissioner of Social Security 

Administration,

Defendant.

No. CV-24-00495-TUC-RCC (EJM)

ORDER 

On October 21, 2024, Magistrate Judge Eric J. Markovich issued a Report and 

Recommendation (“R&R”) stating the magistrate believed Plaintiff had incorrectly 

calculated her and her husband’s monthly expenses on the Application to Proceed in

District Court Without Prepaying Fees or Costs (“IFP Application”). (Doc. 9.) The R&R 

recommended denying the IFP Application, but allowing Plaintiff to object to this 

determination by filing a corrected IFP Application clearing up any discrepancies. (Id.) 

Plaintiff filed an Objection, attaching an Amended IFP Application which appears 

to be a copy of the original except that it calculates monthly expenses of $5,241.00, 

instead of the original $4,297.00. (Doc. 11-1 at 4–5.) The Court finds this calculation to 

reasonably explain the discrepancy from the original and will grant the Amended IFP 

Application. 

For these reasons, IT IS ORDERED:

1) Magistrate Judge Eric J. Markovich’s R&R is ADOPTED. (Doc. 9.)

2) Plaintiff’s original IFP Application is DENIED. (Doc. 2.)

Dated this 2nd day of December, 2024.
