- ilcd;;1:17-cv-01081_de18 RegisterActionDescriptionText "TExT ORDER. Petitioner has filed a Motion for Leave to Appeal in forma pauperis. (Doc. 16 ). However, Petitioner has only submitted the application and has not provided either a brief stating the reasons for his appeal or a copy of his trust fund ledger for the past six months. The Petitioner is directed to file a copy of his trust fund ledger and to file a brief stating the reasons for his appeal ON OR BEFORE 5/4/2017. Under the in forma pauperis statute, the district court is required to determine if the petitioner's appeal is taken in "good faith." Good faith in this context is not about the petitioner's sincerity. It is about whether "a reasonable person could suppose... [the appeal] has some merit." Walker v. O'Brien, 216 F.3d 626, 632 (7th Cir. 2000). Entered by Judge Joe Billy McDade on 4/6/2017. (TW, ilcd) (Entered: 04/06/2017)" @default.
