Re:  Request for records concerning requester

Disposition:  Denying requester's motion for in forma pauperis status

  • Litigation Considerations:  The Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit relates that "[the requester] seeks leave to proceed in forma pauperis ("IFP") to appeal the grant of summary judgment in favor of the United States Army on his claims under the Freedom of Information Act . . . ."  "In support of his IFP motion, he attached only a short-form financial affidavit that does not adequately set forth his income, expenses, and other financial information, from which this Court can make a determination regarding his financial status."  "Consequently, his IFP motion is denied without prejudice, subject to his establishing that he is financially eligible for IFP status . . . ."
