UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CARLOS A. ORTEGA,

Plaintiff,

v.

A. FLORES, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 19-cv-00319-HSG 

ORDER DENYING LEAVE TO 

PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS ON 

APPEAL

Plaintiff, a California prisoner, filed this pro se civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 

§ 1983. Pursuant to the December 30, 2019 referral notice from the United States Court of

Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, the Court finds that the appeal is frivolous and therefore leave to 

proceed in forma pauperis on appeal is DENIED and plaintiff’s in forma pauperis status is 

REVOKED. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3); Hooker v. American Airlines, 302 F.3d 1091, 1092 (9th 

Cir. 2002). This case remains closed. The Clerk shall transmit a copy of this order to the Court of 

Appeals.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: 1/13/2020
