District Court, S.D. New York

Seals v. Stevenson

Trial Court Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK TINA R. SEALS, Plaintiff, 21-CV-8058 (LTS) -against- ORDER OF DISMISSAL CAMIA HOARD STEVENSON; MARLEY UNDER

28 U.S.C. § 1651

HOARD STEVENSON, Defendants. LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge: On October 1, 2014, Judge Loretta A. Preska barred Plaintiff from filing any new civil action in this Court in forma pauperis (“IFP”) without first obtaining from the Court leave to file. See Seals v. McClurkin, ECF 1:14-CV-6080, 7 (S.D.N.Y. Oct. 1, 2014). Plaintiff files this new pro se case, seeks IFP status, and has not sought leave from the Court. The Court therefore dismisses the action without prejudice for Plaintiff’s failure to comply with the October 1, 2014 order. Plaintiff’s request for permission to participate in electronic case filing (ECF No. 3) is denied as moot. 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 mail a copy of this order to Plaintiff and note service on the docket. SO ORDERED. Dated: September 29, 2021 New York, New York
