Ahmed v. John/Jane Doe

Trial Court Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AMAR AHMED, Petitioner, 23-CV-5756 (LTS) -against- ORDER OF DISMISSAL JOHN/JANE DOE, Respondent. LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge: By order dated July 6, 2023, the Court directed Petitioner, within thirty days, to submit a completed request to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP application”) or pay the $5.00 in fees required to file a petition for a writ of habeas corpus in this court. That order specified that failure to comply would result in dismissal of the petition. Petitioner has not filed an IFP application or paid the fee. Accordingly, the petition is dismissed without prejudice. 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 action. SO ORDERED. Dated: August 9, 2023 New York, New York
