Defendants.

14
Plaintiff Kasey F. Hoffmann is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in
15
this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On June 12, 2018, the Court dismissed this
16
action, without prejudice, for the failure to exhaust available administrative remedies. (Docs. 13,
17
14.) On June 20, 2018, Plaintiff filed a notice of appeal. (Doc. 15.)
18
On July 12, 2018, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals referred the matter back to this
19
Court for the limited purpose of determining whether in forma pauperis status should continue for
20
the appeal. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3). (Doc. 18.) The Court finds that this appeal is not taken in
21
bad faith and is not frivolous. Accordingly, in forma pauperis status should not be revoked and
22
should continue on appeal.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
