ORDER DENYING MOTION TO

KAISER EMERGENCY IN SAN

Re: Dkt. No. 12

Defendant.

United States District Court
Northern District of California

Before the court is a motion by pro se plaintiff Jamilah Abdul-Haqq. Dkt. 12.

13

Although filed on this court’s docket, Abdul-Haqq’s motion is seemingly directed to the

14

U.S. Supreme Court, and seeks leave to proceed in forma pauperis regarding her appeal

15

from the Ninth Circuit’s decision against her in a separate case, No. 14-cv-4140 PJH.

16

Any request to proceed in forma pauperis with regard to a writ of certiorari must be filed

17

with the Supreme Court, and not this court.

18

The only part of the motion addressed to this court is a request for “intervention of

19

right” pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 24. This rule permits a non-party to a

20

case to intervene if their interests are affected. The court DENIES the motion to

21

intervene as moot because Abdul-Haqq is already a party to this action. The January 25,

22

2017 hearing date is accordingly VACATED.

23

IT IS SO ORDERED.

24

Dated: December 28, 2016
