Cayce Clerk RAMON TORRES, Plaintiff-Appellant v. DENISE COLLINS; JASON SANCHEZ; CHRIS DANIEL; KIM OGG; ED GONZALEZ, Defendants-Appellees Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas USDC No. 4:18-CV-1415 Before REAVLEY, JONES, and HIGGINSON, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: * Ramon Torres appealed the district court’s denial, without prejudice, of his motion to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP) in that court. Meanwhile, after Torres filed the required documentation of his poverty, the district court granted him leave to proceed IFP. His appeal is moot, and there is no appealable order that ended the litigation. See Thompson v. Drewry, 138 F.3d Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4. * Case: 18-20434 Document: 00514847657 Page: 2 Date Filed: 02/22/2019 No. 18-20434 984, 985-86 (5th Cir. 1998). Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED for lack of jurisdiction. Torres’s motion for leave to file a supplemental brief is DENIED. 2
