    CIVIL JUDGMENT: For the reasons stated in the August 1, 2022, order, this action is dismissed. The Court certifies under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from the Court's judgment would not be taken in good faith. SO ORDERED.

  14. #22022-08-01

    ORDER OF DISMISSAL UNDER 28 U.S.C. § 1651: On July 10, 2020, Plaintiff was barred from filing any new civil action in this court in forma pauperis ("IFP") without first obtaining from the court leave to file. See Johnson v. Wolfe, ECF 1:19-CV-7337, 8 (S.D.N.Y. July 10, 2020), appeal dismissed, No. 21-299 (2d Cir. July 15, 2021). Plaintiff filed this new pro se action with an incomplete request to proceed IFP.1 Plaintiff has not, however, sought leave to file. The Court therefore dismisses this action without prejudice for Plaintiff's failure to comply with the court's July 10, 2020, order. The Court certifies under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from this order would not be taken in good faith, and therefore IFP status is denied for the purpose of an appeal. Cf. Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45 (1962) (holding that an appellant demonstrates good faith when he seeks review of a nonfrivolous issue).The Clerk of Court is directed to enter judgment in this case. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Laura Taylor Swain on 8/1/22) (rdz) (Entered: 08/02/2022)
