Brown v. Campbell

District Court, S.D. New York

Brown v. Campbell

Trial Court Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK CAROL BROWN, Plaintiff, 22-CV-0362 (LTS) -against- ORDER OF DISMISSAL CRYSTAL CAMPBELL, Defendant. LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge: Plaintiff, who is appearing pro se, brings this action, alleging that Defendant violated her rights. The Court dismisses the complaint for the following reasons. Plaintiff has previously submitted to this Court a substantially similar complaint against Defendant alleging the same set of facts. That case is presently pending before this Court under docket number ECF 1:21-CV-10276 (LTS). As this complaint raises the same claims, no useful purpose would be served by litigating this duplicate lawsuit. Therefore, this complaint is dismissed without prejudice to Plaintiff’s pending case under docket number 1:21-CV-10276 (LTS). CONCLUSION Plaintiff’s complaint is dismissed without prejudice as duplicative of Plaintiff’s pending case under docket number 1:21-CV-10276 (LTS). The Court certifies, pursuant to

28 U.S.C. § 1915

(a)(3), that any appeal from this order would not be taken in good faith, and therefore in forma pauperis status is denied for the purpose of an appeal. See Coppedge v. United States,

369 U.S. 438, 444-45

(1962). The Clerk of Court is directed to mail a copy of this order to Plaintiff and note service on the docket. SO ORDERED. Dated: January 19, 2022 New York, New York
