On February 3, 2021, the Court denied plaintiff’s first motion to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal. See ECF No. 10. Likewise, the Court will deny plaintiff’s second motion to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal. When this Court dismissed plaintiff’s case, it certified in writing that an appeal would not be taken in good faith, see 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3), and it is not apparent that plaintiff now seeks appellate review of any issue that is not frivolous. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 445 (1962). Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff’s second motion to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal is DENIED.
