ORDER DENYING LEAVE TO PROCEED ON APPEAL
PURSUANT TO 28 U.S.C. § 1915 AND FED. R. APP. P. 24

Magistrate Judge Craig B. Shaffer
This matter comes before the court on Plaintiff’s Prisoner’s Motion and Affidavit for
Leave to Proceed on Appeal Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 and Fed. R. App. P. 24 (Doc. 162).
The court has examined the file and determined that the motion must be denied. Pursuant to 28
U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3), the court finds that this appeal is not taken in good faith because Plaintiff
has not shown the existence of a reasoned, nonfrivolous argument on the law and facts in support
of the appeal.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the Prisoner’s Motion and Affidavit for Leave to
Proceed on Appeal Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 and Fed. R. App. P. 24 (Doc. 162) is DENIED.
