Green on Tuesday, November 27, 2012.
Ms. Green argued in her cross-appeal that the language of the IFP statute, 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2), requires a magistrate judge to screen cases for merit before granting IFP because the statute states in part that “the court shall dismiss the case at any time if the court determines that . . . (B) the action or appeal (i) is frivolous or malicious.” While the purpose of the IFP statute is to discourage the filing of baseless lawsuits that a paying litigant generally would not file, the court held that the statute does not require IFP cases be screened for merit before the grant of IFP.

Brown is this year’s recipient of the Gary L. MacPherson Outstanding Young Lawyer of the Year Award. Mr. Brown is a shareholder with Donelson, Ciancio & Grant, P.C., in Broomfield.
Mr. Brown, age 35, has already shown great leadership skills in both the legal community and the community at large.

The Gary L.

Mr. McPherson was honored with the award in 1993; he went on to serve three terms in the state legislature. The award was renamed in his honor following his death in 2000.
Mr. Brown will be honored at the Young Lawyers Division holiday party on December 12 and at the Colorado Bar Foundation Annual Bar Fellows Dinner in January.
