See Bolin v. Dwyer, No. 23-cv-00550- 15 CRB (PR) (N.D. Cal. filed Jan. 30, 2023) (“Bolin v. Dwyer”). He also sought leave to proceed in 16 forma pauperis (IFP) under 28 U.S.C. § 1915. See Bolin v. Dwyer ECF No. 2. 17 On February 9, 2023, the court denied plaintiff’s application to proceed IFP because he: (1) had three or more prior prisoner actions dismissed by a federal court on the grounds that they 18 are frivolous, malicious or fail to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, and (2) was not 19 seeking relief from a danger of serious physical injury which was imminent at the time of filing. 20 See id. ECF No. 7 at 1-2 (applying 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g)).
