MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This matter is before the Court on plaintiff’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis on
appeal. [Doc. 9]. When the Court dismissed this action, it certified in writing that an appeal
would not be taken in good faith, see [Docs. 5, 6]; 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3), and it is not apparent
that plaintiff now seeks appellate review of any issue that is not frivolous. See Coppedge v.
United States, 369 U.S. 438, 445 (1962). As a result, the Court will deny the motion.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis on
appeal [Doc. 9] is DENIED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that plaintiff shall file any future documents or pleadings
in connection with his appeal directly with the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth
Circuit.
Dated this 19th day of May, 2026.
