Logan v. State of New York DOCCS
Trial Court Opinion
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK JOSEPH LOGAN, Petitioner, 23-CV-6196 (LTS) -against- ORDER OF DISMISSAL STATE OF NEW YORK DOCCS, Respondent. LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge: By order dated July 19, 2023, the Court directed Petitioner, within thirty days, either to submit a completed request to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP) or to pay the $5.00 fee 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. See
28 U.S.C. §§ 1914, 1915. 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). Judgment shall enter. SO ORDERED. Dated: August 22, 2023 New York, New York
