UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DAVID TOWNSEL,

Plaintiff,

v.

MADERA COUNTY DEPT PROBATION, et 

al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:15-cv-00763-LJO-SAB

ORDER GRANTING APPLICATION TO 

PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS

(ECF No. 4)

Plaintiff David Townsel (“Plaintiff”), proceeding pro se in this action, filed an application 

to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 on May 27, 2015. (ECF No. 4.) 

Plaintiff’s application demonstrates entitlement to proceed without prepayment of fees. 

Notwithstanding this order, the Court does not direct that service be undertaken until the Court 

screens the complaint in due course and issues its screening order.

Accordingly, the Court GRANTS Plaintiff’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: May 27, 2015
