ORDER REGARDING IN FORMA 

PAUPERIS STATUS ON APPEAL

Plaintiff Bob Bejarano (“Plaintiff”), a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma 

pauperis, filed this civil rights action on April 12, 2011. The action was dismissed without 

prejudice on August 20, 2013. Plaintiff filed a notice of appeal on September 25, 2013.

On October 1, 2013, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals referred the matter back to this 

Court for the limited purpose of determining whether in forma pauperis status should continue 

for the appeal, or whether the appeal is frivolous or taken in bad faith. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3).

Accordingly, in forma pauperis status should not be revoked and should continue on appeal. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
