ORDER DIRECTING MARSHAL TO

EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS

On September 21, 2005, Plaintiff Linda T. Wilson filed a

Complaint [doc. no. 1] seeking review of the Social Security

Commissioner’s denial of Plaintiff’s claim for disability insurance

benefits. Wilson was granted leave to proceed in forma pauperis on

March 22, 2006 [doc. no. 3].

Because Plaintiff is proceeding in forma pauperis, she is

entitled to have the summons and Complaint in her case served by

the United States Marshal. Puett v. Blandford, 912 F.2d 270, 273

(9th Cir. 1990) (citing Romandette v. Weetabix Co., 807 F.2d 309,

310 n.1 (2d Cir. 1986); see also Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(c)(2)(B)(i).
