MEMORANDUM** 

Randall N. Wiideman, Nevada state prisoner, appeals pro se the district court's order denying his motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis under 28 U.S.C. § 1915.

Wiideman's complaint raises arguable questions of law as to whether there was a valid subpoena issued to seize documents from the post office box in question and, as to whether police officer Perez and district attorney Wolfson were exceeding the scope of their duties. It is not frivolous within the meaning of Section 1915(d). Neitzke v. Williams, 57 U.S.L.W. 4493, 4496-97 (May 1, 1989).

The affidavit submitted by Wiideman supports his claim of indigency.

The judgment is reversed and remanded with instructions to allow Wiideman to file his complaint.

REVERSED and REMANDED.

The panel unanimously agrees that this case is appropriate for submission without oral argument. Fed. R. App. P. 34(a); 9th Cir. 34-4
