In response to the Referral Notice from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, this Court

14

determines that Plaintiff’s complaint is frivolous, as it “has ‘no arguable basis in fact or law.’”

O’Loughlin v. Doe, 920 F.2d 614, 617 (9th Cir. 1990) (quoting Franklin v. Murphy, 745 F.2d

16

1221, 1228 (9th Cir. 1984). Appeal of the dismissal is therefore not “taken in good faith” within

17

the meaning of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3). See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45

18

(1962). In forma pauperis status is not warranted.
