UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF MISSOURI EASTERN DIVISION JOSEPH MICHAEL DEVON ENGEL, ) Plaintiff, v. No. 4:20-cv-01430-AGF MISSOURI DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, et al., ) Defendants. MEMORANDUM AND ORDER This matter is before the Court on plaintiff Joseph Michael Devon Engel’s motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal. (Docket No. 8). 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. 8 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,

(1962). The Court will therefore deny the motion. Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiffs motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal (Docket No. 8) is DENIED. Dated this 5th day of January, 2021.
