UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SUSAN LYNN PETERSON,

Plaintiff,

v.

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL 

SECURITY,

Defendant.

No. 2:14-cv-2753-KJN

ORDER

Presently pending before the court is plaintiff’s motion for leave to proceed without the 

prepayment of fees and costs, also referred to as in forma pauperis, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 

1915.1 (ECF No. 2.) However, the filing on the docket labeled as a motion to proceed in forma 

pauperis is actually an assignment of Equal Access to Justice Act fees, and is duplicative of 

another such filing on the docket. (Compare ECF Nos. 2 and 3.) As such, the court’s record does 

not contain any financial information supporting the motion to proceed in forma pauperis. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis (ECF No. 2) is denied without 

prejudice as unsupported.

This case was referred to the undersigned pursuant to E.D. Cal. L.R. 302(c)(15).

to proceed in forma pauperis or pay the applicable filing fee.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
