ORDER granting 3 Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis. Here, Petitioner Roberto Aurelio Mendez Juarez filed a sworn declaration in support of his fee waiver request. (Dkt. No. 3). This form, while not identical to the standard form AO 240, provides substantially the same information as what would be requested in the standard form.1 For that reason, the Undersigned finds that there is sufficient information provided to determine the impact of prepayment of the filing fee.2 Having reviewed Petitioners Application, the Court finds that Petitioner would suffer undue financial hardship if he were required to prepay the filing fee. Accordingly, the Court GRANTS Petitioners Application to Proceed in District Court Without Prepaying Fees or Costs (In Forma Pauperis), (Dkt. No. 3), and authorizes him to commence this action without prepayment of fees.(Signed by Magistrate Judge Brian C Bajew) Parties notified. (rlt5) (Entered: 10/23/2026)
