Trial Court Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK FELIPE PEREZ, Plaintiff, 20-CV-0079 (CM) -against- ORDER E. BRYANT, et al., Defendants.

COLLEEN McMAHON, Chief United States District Judge: Plaintiff brings this action pro se. By order dated June 2, 2020, the Court directed Plaintiff to submit, within thirty days, an amended application to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP) or pay the $400 in fees required to bring a civil action in this Court. (ECF No. 8.) It appears that the Court’s order was mailed to an incorrect address.

The Court therefore directs the Clerk of Court to remail a copy of the Court’s June 2, 2020 order (ECF No. 8), along with a copy of this order, to Plaintiff’s address as reflected on the docket at 631 East 220th Street, Apt. #4B, Bronx, NY 10467.

The Court grants Plaintiff thirty days from the date of this order to submit an amended IFP application or pay the $400 in fees required to bring a civil action in this Court. If Plaintiff fails to comply with this order within the time allowed, the Court will dismiss the action.

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: August 28, 2020 , New York, New York hie l Wyk COLLEEN McMAHON Chief United States District Judge
