CARLOS OCHOA-OROZCO, #26996-078 v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA


MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER

MARCIA A. CRONE, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.

Carlos Ochoa-Orozco filed a motion for leave to appeal in forma pauperis (#38). Appellant may proceed in forma pauperis on appeal only if he is economically eligible and presents a nonfrivolous issue. See Carson v. Polley, 689 F.2d 562, 586 (5th Cir. 1982). A review of the case shows that, on October 25, 2023, the Court denied Movant's Motion for Relief from Judgment pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b) because it was without merit (#32). On July 24, 2024, the Court denied a certificate of appealability (#36). Because Movant has neither presented a nonfrivolous issue nor shown that he is entitled to a certificate of appealability, he also has not shown that he is entitled to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal. United States v. Delario, 120 F.3d 580, 582 (5th Cir. 1997).

It is therefore ORDERED Movant's motion for leave to appeal in forma pauperis (#38) is DENIED.
