ORDER FILED. Lisa B. Fitzgerald, Appellate Commissioner. On February 20, 2026, this court stayed appellate proceedings pending the district courts resolution of appellants motion for reconsideration, and ordered appellant to file the opening brief or other appropriate motion within 30 days after resolution of the motion in the district court. On April 22, 2026, the district court granted in part appellants motion for reconsideration. More than 30 days have passed since the district courts order, but appellant has not filed anything in this court. The stay of proceedings is therefore lifted and this appeal will proceed.

ORDER FILED. Lisa B. Fitzgerald, Appellate Commissioner. Appellant was incorrectly notified that fees were due. Appellant is not required to pay fees for this appeal because the district court found appellant to be indigent. See Fed. R. App. P. 24(a)(3). The docket has been amended to reflect appellants in forma pauperis status. The motion (Docket Entry No. 5) for appointment of counsel is granted. See 18 U.S.C. 3006A. Per C. Olson has been added to the docket as counsel for appellant. The unopposed motion (Docket Entry No. 5) to stay the appeal is granted. Briefing is stayed pending resolution of the motion for reconsideration in the district court, or further order of this court. Within 30 days after resolution of proceedings in the district court, appellant must file the opening brief or other appropriate motion. [Entered: 02/20/2026 03:20 PM]
