On April 15, 2008 the bankruptcy court entered an order dismissing appellants' Chapter 13 case. Doc #1 at 1. Appellants ADELINA B WILLIAMS and ANTHONY L WILLIAMS, Appellants, v CREDITOR MARTHA G BRONITSKY, Appellee. / No C 08-80156 MISC ORDER

filed a notice of appeal on April 29, 2008, which was forwarded to the United States Bankruptcy Appellate Panel of the Ninth Circuit and assigned BAP No NC-08-1117. Doc #1 at 1. The notice of appeal

included a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis under 28 USC § 1915(a). Doc #1 at 1-2. Because the bankruptcy appellate

panel has no authority to grant in forma pauperis motions, the motion was transferred to this court for the limited purpose of ruling on the in forma pauperis motion. Doc #1 at 2.

For good cause shown, appellants' motion to proceed in forma pauperis is GRANTED.
