The Pennsylvania Petition FOR LEAVE to PROCEED IFP is a document that is filed in the courts in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. It is used to request permission from the court to proceed with a lawsuit without paying the fulfilling fees. This type of petition is sometimes referred to as an In Form Paupers (IFP) petition. There are two types of Pennsylvania Petition FOR LEAVE to PROCEED IFP: the Standard Petition FOR LEAVE to PROCEED IFP and the Simplified Petition FOR LEAVE to PROCEED IFP. The Standard Petition FOR LEAVE to PROCEED IFP is used when the petitioner's financial situation is complex, and requires financial documentation to be submitted with the petition. The Simplified Petition FOR LEAVE to PROCEED IFP is used when the petitioner's financial situation is simpler, and does not require the submission of financial documentation. Both types of petitions must be accompanied by a proposed Complaint or Petition, and must be signed by the petitioner. The court will then review the petition and decide whether to grant or deny leave to proceed IFP.
