Elhadj Alpha Mahmoud Souare v. United States Citizenship and Immigration Services, et al.

Whether the Sixth Circuit violated the Due Process Clause by dismissing an indigent pro se litigant's appeal for want of prosecution based solely on his inability to pay the appellate filing fee, where the district court simultaneously conditioned any reopening on prepayment of a separate district­ court filing fee and certified under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that any appeal would not be taken in good faith, thereby constructing a procedural trap that denied petitioner access to any federal court.
