Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. MC-H-95-0004
- - - - - - - - - -
November 20, 1995
Before KING, SMITH and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Gloria Trevino Turner appeals the district court's order
denying her application to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP).
Because Turner's affidavit and financial information indicate
that she is not able to meet the costs of this litigation without
undue hardship, the decision denying IFP is REVERSED. See Adkins
v. E.I. Du Pont de Nemours & Co., 335 U.S. 331, 339 (1948);
*
Local Rule 47.5 provides: "The publication of opinions
that have no precedential value and merely decide particular
cases on the basis of well-settled principles of law imposes
needless expense on the public and burdens on the legal
profession." Pursuant to that Rule, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published.
No. 95-20132

Flowers v. Turbine Support Division, 507 F.2d 1242, 1244-46 (5th
Cir. 1975).
As no transcript is necessary for the proper disposition of
this appeal, Turner's request for a transcript at Government
expense is DENIED. See Harvey v. Andrist, 754 F.2d 569, 571 (5th
Cir.), cert. denied, 471 U.S. 1126 (1985).
REVERSED AND REMANDED.
