UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MICHAEL ALAN MURRAY,

Plaintiff,

v.

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY,

Defendant.

Case No. 1:16-cv-01536-SAB

ORDER REQUIRING PLAINTIFF TO FILE 

LONG FORM APPLICATION TO 

PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS

(ECF No. 2)

TWENTY DAY DEADLINE

Plaintiff Baron Michael Alan Murray (“Plaintiff”) filed the complaint in this action on 

October 11, 2016. (ECF No. 1.) 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. However, 

Plaintiff’s application demonstrates that he is receiving income above the poverty threshold and 

is insufficient for the Court to determine if he is entitled to proceed without prepayment of fees 

in this action.

Accordingly, the Court will order Plaintiff to 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.

Based upon the foregoing, it is HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The Clerk of the Court is directed to forward an Application to Proceed in District

$400.00 filing fee for this action, or (2) complete and file the enclosed 

Application to Proceed in District Court Without Prepaying Fees or Costs (Long 

Form) – AO 239; and

3. If Plaintiff fails to comply with this order, this action shall be dismissed.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
