UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DOMINIC HANNA,

Plaintiff,

v.

FRESNO COUNTY, et al.,

Defendants.

___________________________________/

CASE NO. 1:14-cv-00142-LJO-SKO 

ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO 

APPOINT GUARDIAN AD LITEM

(Doc. 4)

ORDER GRANTING APPLICATION 

TO PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS

(Docs. 3, 5)

Plaintiff Dominic Hanna filed a complaint on February 3, 2014, along with an 

application to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915, through his proposed 

guardian ad litem, Kathy Henderson. Ms. Henderson also submitted a petition to be appointed 

Plaintiff's guardian ad litem. Good cause appears to appoint Kathy Henderson as Plaintiff's 

guardian ad litem pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 17(c)(2). Additionally, the 

application to proceed in forma pauperis demonstrates entitlement to proceed without 

prepayment of fees. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Petitioner Kathy Henderson is APPOINTED as Plaintiff's guardian ad litem; and

2. Plaintiff's application to proceed in forma pauperis, made through Plaintiff's 

guardian ad litem, is GRANTED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: February 5, 2014 /s/ Sheila K. Oberto 

UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
