(District of Kansas) 

ORDER AND JUDGMENT* 

Before McKAY, Chief Judge, SEYMOUR and EBEL, Circuit Judges. 

After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel 

has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially 

assist the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 

34(a); 10th Cir. R. 34.1.9. The case is therefore ordered 

submitted without oral argument. 

This matter is before the court on appellant's motion for 

leave to proceed on appeal without prepayment of costs or fees . 

* This order and judgment has no precedential value and shall 

not be cited, or used by any court within the Tenth Circuit, 

except for purposes of establishing the doctrines of the law of 

the case, res judicata, or collateral estoppel. 10th Cir. R. 

36. 3. .

both: 

In order to succeed on his motion, an appellant must show 

1. A financial inability to pay the required filing fees 

2. The existence of a reasoned, nonfrivolous argument on 

the law and facts in support of the issues raised on 

appeal. 

See 28 u.s.c. S 1915(a); Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438 

(1962); Ragan v. Cox, 305 F.2d 58 (10th Cir. 1962). 

We conclude, pursuant to the reasons set out in the district 

court order, that appellant can make no rational argument on the 

law or facts in support of the issues raised on appeal. 

Therefore, the motion for leave to proceed on appeal without 

prepayment of costs or fees is denied. 

It is further ordered as follows: 

1. The filing fee is waived; 

2. The appeal is dismissed because no rational argument can 

be made; and 

3. The mandate shall issue forthwith.
