NOTE: This order is nonprecedential.

United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ______________________ NEAPOLEON JWAN FREEMAN, SR., Plaintiff-Appellant, v. UNITED STATES, Defendant-Appellee. ______________________ 2014-5023 ______________________ Appeal from the United States Court of Federal Claims in No. 1:13-cv-00327-EJD, Judge Edward J.

Damich. ______________________ ON MOTION ______________________ PER CURIAM.

ORDER Neapoleon Jwan Freeman, Sr. moves for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. Mr. Freeman also appears to request appointment of counsel to assist him in this appeal.

Because Mr. Freeman has failed to file a completed Federal Circuit Form 6, this court is unable to determine Case: 14-5023 Document: 7 Page: 2 Filed: 02/19/2014

2 FREEMAN v. US

whether he meets the requirements for proceeding in forma pauperis. The court also notes that the dockets of this court and the United States Court of Federal Claims list Mr. Freeman’s address as the Coffeewood Correctional Center, Mitchells, VA 22729, indicating that he may currently be incarcerated. If Mr. Friedman is currently a prisoner, he must also submit Federal Circuit Form 6A, a supplemental form for prisoners.

To the extent that Mr. Freeman requests that this court appoint him counsel to assist with this appeal, that request is denied.

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED THAT: (1) The motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis is denied without prejudice to Mr. Freeman refiling his request within 21 days of the date of this order with complete responses to the Federal Circuit Form 6’s re- quests, including average monthly income sources, aver- age monthly expenses, and current address, as well as Form 6A, if applicable. (2) The motion for appointment of counsel is denied.
