IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ANTHONY PAUL MAXWELL, No. 2:15-CV-0015-CMK-P

Plaintiff, 

vs. ORDER

RYON MITCHELL, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

Plaintiff, a prisoner proceeding pro se, brings this civil rights action pursuant to 

42 U.S.C. § 1983. Pending before the court are plaintiff’s motion for leave to proceed in forma

pauperis (Doc. 17) and plaintiff’s motion for an extension of time (Doc. 18). 

Plaintiff, who has already paid the filing fee for this case, requests leave to

proceed in forma pauperis and has submitted a declaration that makes the showing required by 28

U.S.C. § 1915(a). The request to proceed in forma pauperis will, therefore, be granted for

purposes of service of process should service be ordered by the court.
