UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MICHALLA C. ALFARO BRITTANY,

Plaintiff,

v.

UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE,

Defendant.

No. 2:16-cv-0866 MCE CKD PS

ORDER

Plaintiff has not paid the fee ordinarily required to file 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). Plaintiff states she receives disability income, monthly annuities and a monthly 

inheritance but does not set forth the amounts.1 Plaintiff 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. If plaintiff submits another affidavit, she must set forth precisely the 

amounts she receives from disability payments, monthly annuities and monthly inheritance.

 The court notes that in a prior action, a plaintiff named Mika Christina Alfaro stated she also 

received annuities and had $598,000 in a bank account. Alfaro v. Marin, 2:09-cv-3595 FCD KJM 

PS (E.D. Cal.), ECF No. 6. The court takes judicial notice of the prior proceedings. It appears 

that the plaintiff in the present action is the same plaintiff as in Alfaro v. Marin. See 2:09-cv3595 FCD KJM PS (E.D. Cal.), ECF No. 6; 2:16-cv-0866 MCE CKD PS, ECF No. 2 (plaintiff in 

both actions states that her dependents include Anthony Alfaro, son, and Annalise M. Burney, 

daughter).

Plaintiff must also explain the discrepancy between the amounts she listed in her bank account in 

the prior action and in the present action.

In accordance with the above, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff shall submit, within fourteen days from the date of this order, either a 

completed application and affidavit in support of his request to proceed in forma pauperis on the 

form provided by the Clerk of Court, or the appropriate filing fee; plaintiff’s failure to comply 

with this order will result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed; and

2. The Clerk of the Court is directed to send plaintiff a new Application to Proceed In 

Forma Pauperis.
