TAMMI FUQUA,

Plaintiff,

v.

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC.,

Defendant.

Case No. 16-cv-01193-JSC

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE 

REGARDING REQUEST FOR 

TRANSCRIPTS

Re: Dkt. No. 167

Plaintiff Tammi Fuqua, proceeding in forma pauperis, has filed a notice of appeal and a 

request for trial transcripts at no cost. Pursuant to statute, before authorizing the provision of 

transcripts using public funds, “the trial judge or a circuit judge [must] certif[y] that the suit or 

appeal is not frivolous and that the transcript is needed to decide the issue presented by the suit or 

appeal.” 28 U.S.C. § 753(f). Fuqua’s notice of appeal does not identify the basis for her appeal. 

In order to determine whether Fuqua qualifies for transcripts at no cost, Fuqua is ORDERED to 

file a response identifying the grounds for her appeal no later than December 14, 2018.

The response ordered here is intended only to determine whether there is any non-frivolous 

basis for appeal that requires consideration of trial transcripts, and should not be construed as 

limiting in any way the arguments that Fuqua may raise on appeal. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: November 30, 2018
