ORDER DENYING
PETITIONER’S MOTION
FOR LEAVE TO PROCEED
IN FORMA PAUPERIS ON
APPEAL
14
15
This is a habeas corpus case filed pro se by a state prisoner. This court
16
denied the petition and denied a certificate of appealability (“COA”). Petitioner
17
filed a timely notice of appeal, and now moves for leave to proceed in forma
18
pauperis (“IFP”) on appeal.
19
The clerk has transmitted the file to the court of appeals. Petitioner may ask the
20
court of appeals to issue the certificate, see R.App.P. 22(b)(1), or if he does not, the
21
notice of appeal will be construed as such a request, see R.App.P. 22(b)(2). That is, the
22
court of appeals will consider whether a certificate of appealability should issue, and
23
thus whether the appeal may proceed. Pending the court of appeals’ decision on
24
whether a COA should issue, the motion for leave to proceed IFP on appeal (document
25
number 12) is DENIED. The motion may be renewed if a COA is granted.
26
IT IS SO ORDERED.
