Description
Order The plaintiffs have filed two motions for pauper status on appeal from the district court's order returning their complaint unfiled in this civil rights case. 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The defendants have filed a motion to dismiss. The appeal has been referred to a panel of the court pursuant to Rule 9(a), Rules of the Sixth circuit. After an examination of the record and the plaintiffs' brief, this panel agrees unanimously that oral argument is not needed. Fed. R. App. P. 34(a). As a preliminary matter, it should be noted that the defendants' motion to dismiss is actually in the nature of a motion to affirm. Such motions are forbidden by Rule 8(a)(1), Rules of the Sixth Circuit. Therefore the motion to dismiss is denied.
