NO.
INFORMATION FOR THE INMATE/APPLICANT: You have requested that the
Court waive the filing fees and (normal) costs and allow you to proceed as an indigent
plaintiff. You are required to provide the court with information about your finances so that the court can
determine whether you are unable to pay the fee or to make partial payments. You are required to sign this
affidavit form under the penalties of perjury. This includes a statement that no action has been taken to hide
assets. The court can dismiss the complaint if it finds that the claim of indigency is untrue. In addition, the court
may impose costs on an inmate who intentionally files an affidavit that contains false information or that omits
material information. You are also subject to loss of up to 60 days of good time earned or to be earned under
G. L. c. 127, § 129C ( for blood donation) or under c. 127, § 129D (for work, education or rehabilitation
programs) if the court finds that the affidavit is frivolous and filed in bad faith in order to abuse the judicial
process. See G. L. c. 261, § 29.
