ORDER ACKNOWLEDGING DISMISSAL OF INTERLOCUTORY APPEAL re 189 Notice of Withdrawing Motion to Proceed on Appeal in Forma Pauperis. Signed by JUDGE MARK E WALKER on 3/27/2014. (dlt)

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE
NORTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
TALLAHASSEE DIVISION
PRISON LEGAL NEWS,
Plaintiff,
v.

CASE NO. 4:12-cv-239-MW/CAS

MICHAEL D. CREWS,
Defendant.
_________________________/
ORDER ACKNOWLEDGING DISMISSAL OF
INTERLOCUTORY APPEAL
This Court has considered, without hearing, the Notice of Withdrawing
Motion to Proceed on Appeal in Forma Pauperis, ECF No. 189, filed March 26,
2014, by Daniel Levitan. While this Court already found Mr. Levitan indigent for
purposes of appeal, ECF No. 187, this Court notes that Mr. Levitan has filed a
Notice of Voluntary Dismissal of his appeal with the Eleventh Circuit Court of
Appeals, Case No. 14-10167, and thus Mr. Levitan’s status on appeal is moot.
Accordingly, this Court need take no further action with respect to Mr. Levitan or
his motion to intervene.
More importantly, this Court need no longer consider whether Mr. Levitan’s
interlocutory appeal divested this Court of jurisdiction. The pending motions shall

1

be set for hearing forthwith.
SO ORDERED on March 27, 2014.
s/Mark E. Walker
United States District Judge
