UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

R.Q. seeks to proceed in this action against Tehachapi Unified School District by and through 

his mother and guardian ad litem Charis Quatro. On October 4, 2016, Ms. Quatro filed a motion to

person who submits an affidavit that includes a statement of all assets such person . . . possesses [and] 

that the person is unable to pay such fees or give security therefor.” 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a). The Court 

has reviewed the motion and information provided therein, and finds Ms. Quatro satisfies the 

requirements of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a). 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED:

1. Plaintiff’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis is GRANTED;

2. The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to issue summons as to the defendant;
