UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION

DARRELL L. MARSHALL,
Plaintiff,
Case No. 00-CV-74576
vs.
HON. GEORGE CARAM STEEH
CITY OF DETROIT, and
WAYNE COUNTY,
Defendants.
_____________________________/
ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION
TO PROCEED ON APPEAL IN FORMA PAUPERIS [DOC. 83]
This matter is before the court on Darrell Marshall’s motion to proceed on appeal
in forma pauperis. On May 31, 2013, Mr. Marshall filed an appeal of this court’s order
dated May 23, 2013. The court entered two orders on May 23, 2013. The order Mr.
Marshall appears to be appealing denied his motion to reinstate this previously
dismissed action accusing defendants of covering up head injuries Mr. Marshall
allegedly received in a beating by Detroit police, denying permission to file a new related
case, and denying his request to remove two state court cases that were related to the
previously dismissed case. Mr. Marshall has been identified by the court as a frequent
filer of frivolous motions and has been enjoined from filing further lawsuits without leave
of court. The Sixth Circuit upheld the court’s June 19, 2003 order providing that further
motions for reinstatement of this civil action will be stricken as moot. Against this
backdrop, the court finds that Mr. Marshall’s most recent appeal is frivolous and
therefore DENIES his motion to proceed with the appeal in forma pauperis.
