ORDER VACATING ORDER

GRANTING IN FORMA PAUPERIS

DESIGNATION

The order dated October 15, 2007, granting plaintiffs’ request to proceed in forma

pauperis is VACATED. The reason why is that this Court made a mistake. A year ago, the Ninth

Circuit issued an order stating that plaintiffs were required to pay $455.00 to this district court

and that failure to make such payment would result in dismissal of the appeal. It appears that

instead of making the required payment, plaintiffs reapplied for in forma pauperis standing and

this district court granted the application. In light of the mandatory language of the Ninth

Circuit’s order, this was a mistake. The district court did not have the power to grant in forma

pauperis status. Therefore, the order entitled “Order Re: Appeal In Forma Pauperis” is

VACATED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: November 28, 2007.
