Case No. 1:25-cv-00075-SAB

ORDER REQUIRING PLAINTIFF TO FILE 

LONG FORM APPLICATION TO 

PROCEED WITHOUT PREPAYMENT OF 

FEES

(ECF No. 2)

TWENTY-ONE DAY DEADLINE

Plaintiff Armando Mendoza Juarez filed a complaint on January 16, 2025, seeking 

judicial review of a final decision of the Commissioner of Social Security denying her 

application for disability benefits. Plaintiff did not pay the filing fee in this action and instead 

filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. (ECF No. 2.) 

However, the Court cannot determine from the information provided in the application if 

Plaintiff is entitled to proceed in this action without prepayment of fees. 

Therefore, Plaintiff shall complete and file an Application to Proceed in District Court 

Without Prepaying Fees or Costs (Long Form) – AO 239. If Plaintiff is unwilling to complete 

and submit the long form application, Plaintiff must pay the filing fee in full.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The Clerk of the Court is directed to forward an in forma pauperis application

(Long Form) to Plaintiff;
