SCOOTER STORE; ABULLA AEMA,

                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                       for the Eastern District of Louisiana
                              USDC No. 2:10-CV-1059


Before DENNIS, CLEMENT, and ELROD, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
       James M. Boone seeks leave to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP) in his
appeal from the district court’s denial of his request to proceed IFP in the instant
suit, which is based on diversity of citizenship. Boone insists that the district
court erred by denying his IFP motion because he is impecunious. Boone’s
arguments are insufficient to show that he will raise a nonfrivolous issue on
appeal. See Carson v. Polley, 
689 F.2d 562
, 586 (5th Cir. 1982). Consequently,
his IFP motion is DENIED, and this appeal is DISMISSED as frivolous. See 5 TH
C IR. R. 42.2.


       *
         Pursuant to 5TH CIR . R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR .
R. 47.5.4.
