Plaintiff,

ORDER

KAREN ABOWD, et al.,
13
Defendants.

15

This matter is referred to the Court for the limited purpose of determining whether

16

in forma pauperis status should continue on appeal (ECF No. 11). This Court certifies

17

that any in forma pauperis appeal from its order of dismissal would be frivolous or would

18

not be taken “in good faith” pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3). Plaintiff’s in forma

19

pauperis status should be revoked on appeal. See Hooker v. American Airlines, 302

20

F.3d 1091, 1092 (9th Cir. 2002) (revocation of forma pauperis status is appropriate

21

where district court finds the appeal to be frivolous).

22

DATED THIS 7th day of November 2017.
