Larry A. Bryan, Petitioner-appellant, v. Carla J. Stovall, Respondent-appellant, 83 F.3d 431 (10th Cir. 1996)

Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit - 83 F.3d 431 (10th Cir. 1996) April 24, 1996

Before PORFILIO, McKAY and KELLY, Circuit Judges.


ORDER AND JUDGMENT* 

McKAY

After examining the briefs and the appellate record, this panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a); 10th Cir. R. 34.1.9. The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.

Petitioner Larry Bryan, proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, filed this petition for habeas corpus relief from his state court conviction while his appeal from that conviction is still pending in state court. Thus, the district court dismissed Mr. Bryan's action without prejudice in order to avoid interfering with the state court proceedings. The district court then denied Mr. Bryan leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal. We have reviewed the record and have determined that Mr. Bryan has failed to make an argument on the law or the facts sufficient to warrant granting him leave to appeal in forma pauperis. Thus, Mr. Bryan's motion to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis is denied. The appeal is DISMISSED.

DISMISSED. The mandate shall issue forthwith.
