UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CYNTHIA LIND,

Plaintiff,

CASE NO. 07CV1395-LAB (WMc)

ORDER GRANTING MOTION FOR

LEAVE TO PROCEED IN FORMA

PAUPERIS

vs.

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL

SECURITY,

Defendant.

Plaintiff, a non-prisoner, proceeding pro se, has submitted a complaint to obtain

judicial review of a final decision of the Commissioner of the Social Security Administration

denying eligibility for Supplemental Security Income. Plaintiff has not paid the civil filing fee

required to commence this action, but rather, has filed a motion to proceed in forma pauperis

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a). 

Pursuant to § 1915(a), a court may authorize the commencement of a suit without

prepayment of fees if the plaintiff submits an affidavit, including a statement of all his or her

assets, showing that he or she is unable to pay filing fees. See 28 U.S.C. §1915(a). Plaintiff

has submitted an affidavit which sufficiently shows that she lacks the financial resources to

pay filing fees.
