C. HANSEN, District Judge
THIS MATTER comes before the Court on pro se plaintiff Nancy Lewis' Motion to Proceed in forma pauperis ("IFP"), filed October 1, 2009, see Doc. 2, and on the Court's concomitant obligation "to review the affidavit and screen [her] case under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1915(a) and (e)." Lister v. Dep't of Treasury, 408 F.3d 1309, 1311 (10th Cir. 2005).
Screening the case under § 1915(e) includes determining whether "the allegation of poverty is untrue" as well as determining whether the action "is frivolous or malicious, . . . fails to state a claim on which relief may be granted; or [] seeks monetary relief against a defendant who is immune from such relief." § 1915(e). "[I]n order to succeed on a motion to proceed IFP, the movant must show a financial inability to pay the required filing fees, as well as the existence of a reasoned, nonfrivolous argument on the law and facts in support of the issues raised in the action." Lister, 408 F.3d at 1312.
Lewis' financial affidavit shows that she has no dependents; that she has an income of $1243/month; that she owns a car; that she has an undisclosed amount of money in the bank, and that her monthly expenses are only $503/month. See Doc. 2. Lewis' allegation of poverty is untrue, and she has failed to establish that she is unable to pay the filing fees in this case
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that Lewis' motion to proceed IFP [Doc. 2] is DENIED, and that Lewis shall pay the filing fees in full within five days of the issuance of this Order or her Complaint will be dismissed without further notice.
