CASE NO. C18-176 MJP

v.

ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S
MOTION FOR LEAVE TO APPEAL
IN FORMA PAUPERIS

AMAZON.COM.DEDC LLC,
Defendant.

15
16

On June 4, 2019 this Court GRANTED Defendant’s Motion for Summary Judgment and

17

dismissed Plaintiff’s action, finding Plaintiff had insufficient evidence to support his claims.

18

(Dkt. No. 85-86.) Plaintiff has appealed that dismissal and filed a Motion for Leave to Appeal in

19

forma pauperis. (Dkt. No. 88.)

20

It is the finding of this Court that Plaintiff’s appeal of the dismissal is frivolous. Plaintiff

21

produced no evidentiary support for any of his claims and in many instances contradicted his

22

own allegations during his deposition. (Dkt. No. 85 at 5-11.) Further, Plaintiff’s Motion for

23

Summary Judgment deals exclusively with discovery issues that were previously decided by the

24

ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR LEAVE TO APPEAL IN FORMA PAUPERIS - 1

1

Court. (Dkt. No. 71.) An appeal of the Court’s order is unnecessary and the Court can conceive

2

of no grounds on which it would have merit.

4

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motion for Leave to Appeal in forma
pauperis is DENIED.

The clerk is ordered to provide copies of this order to Plaintiff and all counsel.

Dated June 7, 2019.
