MEMORANDUM **
The district court did not abuse its discretion by applying judicial estoppel because Robert Benning Balthrope, II, (“Bal-thrope”) attempted to pursue legal claims that he did not disclose during his bankruptcy proceedings. See Hamilton v. State Farm Fire & Cas. Co., 270 F.3d 778, 784 (9th Cir.2001) (applying judicial estop-pel where debtor failed to disclose a pending claim as an asset in a bankruptcy proceeding). Contrary to Balthrope’s con*286tention, he was required to amend his bankruptcy petition to include the post-petition claim because his Chapter 13 bankruptcy proceeding had not been closed, dismissed, or converted, and the property of the bankruptcy estate had not revested in him. See 11 U.S.C. § 1306(a)(1); see also Hamilton, 270 F.3d at 784 (“Judicial estoppel will be imposed when the debtor has knowledge of enough facts to know that a potential cause of action exists during the pendency of the bankruptcy, but fails to amend his schedules or disclosure statements to identify the cause of action as a contingent asset.”) (citation omitted).
The district court did not abuse its discretion by denying Balthrope’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis after considering his income and assets as set forth in his bankruptcy action. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(A) (case must be dismissed if “the allegation of poverty is untrue”); O’Loughlin v. Doe, 920 F.2d 614, 616 (9th Cir.1990).
Balthrope’s remaining contentions are unpersuasive.
AFFIRMED.
