STATEMENT
On October 19, 2012, the court denied Plaintiff Simona Tsoupeis' (Tsoupeis) first motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. The court gave Tsoupeis until November 6, 2012, to either pay the filing fee or file an accurately and properly completed in forma pauperis application form. The court also warned Tsoupeis that if she failed to pay the filing fee or file an accurately and properly completed in forma pauperis application form by November 6, 2012, this case would be dismissed.
On November 1, 2012, Tsoupeis filed a second motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. Tsoupeis indicated that she is married, that her spouse earns $1,400 per month, and that someone living at Tsoupeis' residence had received $4,700 in other income in the last twelve months. Since Tsoupeis had not shown herself to be sufficiently indigent to warrant granting her motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis, the motion was denied. The court gave Tsoupeis until November 28, 2012, to pay the filing fee in this case. The court also warned Tsoupeis that if she failed to pay the filing fee by November 28, 2012, this case would be dismissed.
