DEFENDANTS MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER Unrepresented by counsel, the plaintiff, Connie Marshall, filed this action against Global Connections Inc., Global Connections Inc. of America, and their President and CEO Houssam Abdallah. By order entered October 15, 2010, the court dismissed this case under 28 U.S.C. ยง 1915(e)(2)(B)(i) as being frivolous. In the same order, the court certified that an appeal of this action would not be taken in good faith. Currently before the court is Marshall s motion to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal (DN 12). Because the court certified that an appeal would not be taken in good faith, IT IS ORDERED that the motion to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal (DN 12) is DENIED. In order for Marshall to proceed with an appeal in this action, she must either: (1) pay the $455.00 appellate filing fee in full to the clerk of the district court within 30 days after receiving notice of this order; or (2) file a motion to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis in the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit within 30 days after service of this order in accordance with Fed.
