Defendants.
The Court of Appeals has referred this case to this Court to decide,
whether in forma pauperis status should continue for this appeal or whether
the appeal is frivolous or taken in bad faith. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3);
see also Hooker v. American Airlines, 302 F.3d 1091, 1092 (9th Cir. 2002)
(revocation of forma pauperis status is appropriate where district court finds
the appeal to be frivolous).
