APPOINTED COUNSEL’S REQUEST

FOR AUTHORITY TO INCUR COSTS

(handwriting and document

authentication) AND REQUEST FOR

PAYMENT; AND ORDER

PART I

I, Carter C. White, declare:

1. I am an attorney licensed to practice law in the State of California and in the United

States District Court for the Eastern District of California, and the supervising attorney of the King

Hall Civil Rights Clinic, appointed attorney of record for plaintiff in this action. I have personal

knowledge of the facts and circumstances contained herein, except where indicated otherwise, and

if called upon to testify would so state.

2. I believe that it is reasonably necessary in this case, in order to ascertain the 

authenticity of certain documents and signatures found therein , to hire one or more consultants to

review several documents submitted as evidence in order to ascertain their authenticity. I expect

the cost of retaining such consultants not to exceed $5,000. I will do all that I can to keep the

consultant and expert costs minimal and reasonable, and have asked for here an amount that is hoped

to be the maximum needed.
