                                             Complainant,

vs.

 

Donald Betzold,

ORDER WAIVING FILING FEE

Timothy Glidden filed a Complaint in this matter on December 6, 2006.  Mr. Glidden also submitted a notarized Affidavit for Proceeding In Forma Pauperis.

Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes § 211B.32, subd. 5(b), the Office of Administrative Hearings may waive the payment of the filing fee, if the individual seeking a waiver of the fee files an affidavit stating that the individual is financially unable to pay the fee.

Based upon the affidavit filed by Mr. Glidden and pursuant to the 2006 poverty guideline income levels for Minnesota, the Administrative Law Judge finds that the Complainant qualifies for a waiver of the filing fee.

ORDER

IT IS ORDERED:

That payment of the $50 filing fee in this matter is waived.

 

 

Dated this 7th day of December, 2006.
