Jenkins v. United States of America
Trial Court Opinion
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK DARRELL JENKINS, Plaintiff, 19-CV-10586 (CM) -against- ORDER OF DISMISSAL UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, et al., Defendants. COLLEEN McMAHON, Chief United States District Judge: By order dated November 19, 2019, the Court directed Plaintiff to either pay the $400.00 in fees that are required to file a civil action in this court or submit a completed request to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP application’) and prisoner authorization within thirty days. That order specified that failure to comply would result in dismissal of the complaint. Plaintiff has not filed an IFP application and prisoner authorization or paid the filing fees. Accordingly, the complaint is dismissed without prejudice. See 28 U.S.C. $§ 1914, 1915. The Clerk of Court is directed to mail a copy of this order to Plaintiff and note service on the docket. 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). SO ORDERED. Dated: January 9, 2020 , New York, New York Bu. ly Hk COLLEEN McMAHON Chief United States District Judge
