Mrya Jones seeks to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP) on appeal following the district court’s judgment granting the defendant’s summary-judgment motion and dismissing her 42 U.S.C. § 2000(e) complaint. In her complaint, Jones alleged that she was fired because of her religious beliefs and practices.

*344 This court may authorize Jones to proceed IFP on appeal if she is unable to pay the costs of the appeal and the appeal is taken in good faith, ie., the appeal presents nonfrivolous issues. Fed. R.App. P. 24(a)(1); see Holmes v. Hardy, 852 F.2d 151, 153 (5th Cir. 1988).

Jones has failed to demonstrate that her appeal would involve nonfrivolous issues. The summary-judgment evidence showed that General Nutrition Centers, Inc., had articulated a legitimate nondiscriminatory basis for Jones’s termination and she had not borne her burden of establishing that the articulated reason was pretextual. Threadgill v. Prudential Sec. Group, Inc., 145 F.3d 286, 292 (5th Cir. 1998); McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Green, 411 U.S. 792, 802-03, 93 S.Ct. 1817, 36 L.Ed.2d 668 (1973). Jones’s motion for IFP is therefore denied and her appeal dismissed. See Howard v. King, 707 F.2d 215, 219-20 (5th Cir. 1983); 5th Cir. R. 42.2.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
