Joseph E. Taylor v. City of New Albany, Floyd County, New Albany Police Department

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit
Joseph E. Taylor v. City of New Albany, Floyd County, New Albany Police Department, 979 F.2d 87 (7th Cir. 1993)

Joseph E. Taylor v. City of New Albany, Floyd County, New Albany Police Department

Opinion

This matter comes before the court for its consideration upon the request for leave to proceed as a pauper on appeal filed by the appellant on 1/29/92.

This court has carefully reviewed the final order of the district court, the record on appeal and the appellant’s motion. Based on this review, the court has determined that any issues which could be raised are insubstantial and the filing of briefs would not be helpful to the court’s consideration of the issues. See Mather v. Village of Mundelein, 869 F.2d 356, 357 (7th Cir. 1989) (per curiam) (court can decide case on motions papers and record where briefing would be a waste of time and no member of the panel desires briefing or argument). Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that the appellant’s motion for leave to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis is DENIED and the district court is summarily AFFIRMED.
