No. 2:10-CV-01572-PHX-NVW

ORDER

Before the Court is Plaintiff’s Motion for Leave to Proceed In Forma Pauperis (Doc.

4). A review of the Court’s records reflects that he has filed twenty-one lawsuits in 2007 and

one in 2008 seeking in forma pauperis status. Many of Plaintiff’s cases have been dismissed

for lack of jurisdiction and/or failure to state a claim for relief. Under 28 U.S.C. §

1915(a)(1), in forma pauperis proceedings are subject to the Court’s discretion. Plaintiff

shows over $900.00 per month in income and his lawsuit is over the purchase of a computer.

Other than a conclusory statement of the claim, it does not appear that Plaintiff is entitled to

redress. Further, the Court notes that there appears to be no basis for federal jurisdiction in

this case. Therefore, the Court will deny Plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motion for Leave to Proceed in

Forma Pauperis (Doc. 4) is denied.
