ORDER

SUSAN K. LEE, Magistrate Judge.

Before the court is a motion filed by Plaintiff Marta Iznaga ("Plaintiff") seeking in forma pauperis status on appeal [Doc. 34]. Plaintiff has filed a notice of appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit and is seeking in forma pauperis status for said filing [Doc. 36]. The Sixth Circuit generally requests the district court to make an initial determination regarding whether a party on direct appeal is indigent. As Plaintiff was previously permitted to proceed in forma pauperis in the district court action [Doc. 6], however, Plaintiff's motion is MOOT under 6 Cir. R. 24(a)(3). Accordingly, as a matter of rule, Plaintiff may proceed in forma pauperis and the motion [Doc. 6] shall be terminated as moot.

SO ORDERED.
