UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

PACIFIC BELL TELEPHONE 

COMPANY,

Plaintiff,

v.

KIM McKENZIE,

Defendant.

No. 2:16-cv-737 MCE CKD

ORDER

Resolution of defendant’s in forma pauperis application was referred to the undersigned 

by minute order filed April 14, 2016. ECF No. 5. Defendant has not paid the fee ordinarily 

required to remove an action in this court, and has filed an incomplete application to proceed 

without prepayment of fees. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1914(a), 1915(a). Defendant states she is 

currently employed but does not provide the information required on the form with respect to the 

amount of her wages and pay period. Defendant also does not provide a description or value of 

her automobile and does not indicate whether she owns her home. Defendant will be provided 

the opportunity to submit either the appropriate affidavit in support of a request to proceed in 

forma pauperis or the appropriate filing fee.
