WHAT IS A POVERTY AFFIDAVIT? If you are unable (not just reluctant) to pay the filing fee, you may file an Affidavit of Indigence, which is also referred to as a Poverty Affidavit. This is a request asking the Court to let you file your case for free. A judge does not automatically grant these requests.
