UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Plaintiff Deborah Jean Wilburn seeks to proceed in forma pauperis in this action. (Doc. 2) The 

Court may authorize the commencement of an action without prepayment of fees “by a 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 application and the information provided is insufficient to determine whether Plaintiff

satisfies the requirements of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a). 

According to the application, Plaintiff is not employed and relies upon the income of her 

husband,which totals $3,500 per month. (Doc. 3 at 1) In addition, Plaintiff reports she has more than 

$1,400 in a bank account. However, Plaintiff does not identify any monthly expenses they have, or 

whether they have any dependents. Consquently, the Court finds the information is not suffient to 

determine whether Plaintiff satisfies the requirements of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a). 

Accordingly, Plaintiff is ORDERED to file, within fourteen days of this order, an application
