UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Plaintiff J.T. seeks to proceed in this action against Tehachapi Unified School District by and 

through his mother Janice Wolfe (who is seeking appointment as the child’s guardian ad litem), who

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

requirements of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a). Accordingly, the Court ORDERS:

1. Plaintiff’s requests to proceed in forma pauperis are GRANTED;

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