Larry MEROLA, Appellant, v. George ADAMS, Respondent.

Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District.

Rehearing Denied July 3, 1990.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Larry Merola, Mineral Point, pro se.

William L. Webster, Atty. Gen., Jefferson City, for respondent.

Before SHANGLER, P.J., and CLARK and BERREY, JJ.


PER CURIAM.

Appellant requested leave to bring an action in forma pauperis, and he filed a petition for damages under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The trial court denied his request to proceed in forma pauperis on the grounds that his petition was frivolous or malicious in that appellant could prove no set of facts entitling him to relief. He now appeals, claiming that his petition has sufficient merit to proceed through the adversary process.
