UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

Plaintiff,

v.

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE,

Case No. 1:13-cv-01812-LJO-SKO

ORDER THAT PLAINTIFF AMEND HIS 

APPLICATION TO PROCEED IN 

FORMA PAUPERIS WITHIN 30 DAYS

(Doc. No. 2)

Plaintiff Robert Varela is a prisoner proceeding pro se and has requested leave to proceed 

in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. Plaintiff's application, however, is deficient and 

must be amended. Specifically, Plaintiff indicates that he is incarcerated, but fails to identify the 

name of the institution. Additionally, Plaintiff marked boxes on the application form indicating he 

has received income from a business, profession, or other self-employment; rent payments, or 

interest; and/or pensions, annuity, or life insurance payments. However, he has not described the 

amount he has received or what he expects to receive in the future, as required by the application 

form. To be considered by the Court, Plaintiff must file an amended application to remedy the 

defects described above. 

 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff is ordered to AMEND his application to proceed in forma pauperis,

consistent with this Order, within thirty (30) days from the date of service of this order; and

status be denied.
