The Story So Far
Steven Deon Turner filed a lawsuit against Los Angeles County Government and other defendants in the Central District of California, docket number 15-cv-04746. The case remains active but has not yet been assigned to a judge. Turner recently submitted a request to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP), seeking to waive the court filing fee.
This filing suggests Turner is proceeding without the ability to pay standard court costs, a common step for plaintiffs with limited financial resources. The court must now decide whether to grant the IFP status, which will allow Turner to continue the case without prepaying fees.
The nature of Turner's claims against Los Angeles County and the other defendants remains unclear from the public docket. The case is still in its early stages, with no dispositive motions or hearings recorded. The assignment of a judge and the court's ruling on the IFP request will set the next procedural milestones.
Until then, the case awaits further administrative action before substantive litigation begins.
