Barnett v. Payne

Summary

The court remanded Barnett's appeal because the circuit court denied his request to proceed in forma pauperis without making the factual findings required by Rule 72. The circuit court was required to address both Barnett's indigency affidavit and whether his underlying pleading stated a colorable cause of action. The court directed the circuit court to enter a supplemental order within thirty days, after which a new briefing schedule would be established.
