Defendant.

Plaintiff AFlawed Goodsoul, Doctrinaire has filed notices of appeal in all of these cases, and he has not paid the appellate filing fees. Under

28 U.S.C. § 1915

(a)(3), a party may not proceed on appeal without prepaying the filing fee if the district court certifies that the appeal is not taken in good faith. I screened each of these cases and found that all of them were frivolous. Goodsoul’s allegations were largely incomprehensible and none of them provided a plausible basis to infer that any of the dozens of defendants had violated Goodsoul’s rights. An appeal of a frivolous case is not taken in good faith. See Fontanez v. Time Warner Cable,

618 F. App’x 288, 289

(7th Cir. 2015) (“[B]ecause the district court found that [the] suit was frivolous, it should have certified that [the] appeal was taken in bad faith and revoked the order authorizing [the plaintiff] to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal.”). So I will certify that the appeal is not taken

in good faith and revoke the order authorizing Goodsoul to proceed in forma pauperis.

ORDER IT IS ORDERED that the court certifies that plaintiff AFlawed Goodsoul’s appeals in these cases are not taken in good faith. The orders authorizing Goodsoul to proceed in forma pauperis are REVOKED. Entered June 11, 2020. BY THE COURT:
