United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ______________________ SHERYL TAYLOR, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. UNITED STATES, Defendant-Appellee. ______________________ 2014-5068 ______________________ Appeal from the United States Court of Federal Claims in No. 1:13-cv-00467-MBH, Judge Marian Blank Horn. ______________________ ON MOTION ______________________ PER CURIAM. ORDER Sheryl Taylor moves for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. She also moves for the appointment of counsel and for the court “to produce its delegation of authority” relating to her rejected brief. The United States opposes the appointment of counsel. Case: 14-5068 Document: 18 Page: 2 Filed: 05/30/2014 2 TAYLOR v. US We note that the United States Court of Federal Claims permitted Taylor to proceed in forma pauperis. Pursuant to Fed. R. App. P. 24(a)(3), Taylor may proceed in forma pauperis on appeal without further authoriza- tion. To the extent that Taylor is seeking reconsideration of the court’s April 25, 2014 order rejecting her initial sub- mission because she did not use the authorized brief form, the court notes that on May 6, 2014, Taylor submitted a conforming brief that was accepted by this court. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED THAT: (1) The motion for appointment of counsel is denied. (2) All other motions are denied as moot. No fee payment is required for this appeal. FOR THE COURT /s/ Daniel E.
