MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Plaintiff Melanie Vany, a non-prisoner, filed a Motion for Leave to
Proceed in Forma Pauperis. Filing No. 3. Upon review of Plaintiff’s Motion, the
Court finds that Plaintiff is financially eligible to proceed in forma pauperis.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that leave to proceed in forma pauperis
is granted, and the Complaint shall be filed without payment of fees. Plaintiff
is advised that the next step in her case will be for the Court to conduct an
initial review of her claims to determine whether summary dismissal is
appropriate under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2). The Court will conduct this initial
review in its normal course of business.
