REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION

THIS MATTER is before the Court on Plaintiff Lauren Glanton's Application to Proceed in District Court Without Prepaying Fees or Costs (Doc. 2), which the Court construes as a motion to proceed in forma pauperis.

Upon review and consideration of the Application, I recommend that the construed motion be DENIED. According to her Application, Ms. Glanton earns approximately $4,400 in "take-home" pay or wages each month. She lists monthly expenditures amounting to $960 and claims to have $200 in cash presently on hand. Thus, a comparison of the income versus monthly expenses indicates Ms. Glanton has the wherewithal to pay the filing fee in this cause and does not qualify as indigent for the purposes of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a).

In addition, I note that Ms. Glanton's co-plaintiff Tiffany Bent has not submitted any affidavit of indigency or otherwise claimed an inability to pay the filing fee.

For these reasons, I RECOMMEND that Ms. Glanton's construed motion to proceed in forma pauperis (Doc. 2) be DENIED and the district judge direct Plaintiff(s) to pay the filing fee within twenty days of the Court's Order.
