Mapp v. State of Ohio, No. 2:2012cv01039 - Document 27 (S.D. Ohio 2013)

Court Description: OPINION AND ORDER re Petitioner's 09/03/13 Notice of Appeal, which this Court construes as a request for a certificate of appealability. The Petitioner's request for a certificate of appealability is denied. Petitioner has neither paid th e $455.00 filing fee for his appeal, nor has he filed a request to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal. A party may proceed in forma pauperis on appeal without approval if the party proceeded in forma pauperis in the district court, and the district court certifies that the party can take an appeal in good faith. The Petitioner was not previously granted pauper status and the Court certifies that the appeal is not in good faith. Signed by Judge Edmund A Sargus on 09/18/2013. (dh1)
