APPEAL NO. 16-16505

ORDER REGARDING IN FORMA 

PAUPERIS STATUS ON APPEAL

Plaintiff Danny Lee Caesar (“Plaintiff”), a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma 

pauperis, filed this civil action on February 12, 2016. On July 28, 2016, the Court dismissed the 

action for failure to state a cognizable claim. Plaintiff appealed. 

On August 30, 2016, 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).

The Court finds that this appeal is not taken in bad faith and is not frivolous. 

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

IT IS SO ORDERED.
