UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS HENRY MOUNSON, Plaintiff, v. ROBERT E. WALKER, JR. et al., Defendants. MEMORANDUM AND ORDER This matter comes before the Court on plaintiff Henry Mounson's "Motion to Show Plaintiff Arguable Merits" (Doc. 159), which the Court construes as a renewed motion for leave to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis. The Court denied Mounson's original motion (Doc. 151), so this motion should have been directed to the Court of Appeals pursuant to Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 24(a)(5). Accordingly, the Court DIRECTS the Clerk of Court to TRANSFER this motion to the Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit for consideration in connection with Appeal No. 11-1403. IT IS SO ORDERED.
