EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ESTELA GOMEZ DE RAMOS,

Plaintiff,

v.

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY,

Defendant.

Case No. 1:16-cv-00709-SAB

ORDER GRANTING APPLICATION TO 

PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS AND 

DIRECTING CLERK OF COURT TO ISSUE 

SUMMONS

(ECF No. 4)

Plaintiff Estela Gomez De Ramos filed a complaint on May 20, 2016, along with an 

application to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. Plaintiff indicated that 

she was incarcerated and was ordered to file an application to proceed in forma pauperis by a 

prisoner. On June 30, 2016, Plaintiff filed a long form application to proceed in forma pauperis. 

In response to a court order seeking clarification, Plaintiff indicated that she had incorrectly 

marked the box stating she was incarcerated. Therefore, the Court considers the long form 

application filed on June 30, 2016. Plaintiff’s application demonstrates entitlement to proceed 

without prepayment of fees.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:

1. Plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis is GRANTED;

2. The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to issue a summons; and
