Plaintiff Armando Abreu, (“Plaintiff”), a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

16

pauperis, filed this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On January 22, 2018, the

17

Court dismissed this action for failure to state a claim. (ECF Nos. 33, 34.) On February 1, 2018,

18

Plaintiff filed a notice of appeal. (ECF No. 35.)

19

On June 1, 2018, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals referred the matter back to this Court

20

for the limited purpose of determining whether in forma pauperis status should continue for the

21

appeal. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3). The Court finds that this appeal is not taken in bad faith and is

22

not frivolous. Accordingly, in forma pauperis status should not be revoked and should continue

23

on appeal.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
