Lieber v. Spira

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK SHLOMO LIEBER, Plaintiff, 23-CV-6932 (LTS) -against- ORDER ARON SPIRA, et al., Defendants.

LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge: By order dated November 11, 2023, the Court dismissed the complaint, and granted Plaintiff 30 days to replead his claims in an amended complaint. On November 20, 2023, the Court received a letter from Plaintiff requesting an extension of time to file an amended complaint. The request for an extension of time is granted. Plaintiff is directed to file an amended complaint within 30 days of the date of this order. If Plaintiff fails to comply within the time allowed, and he cannot show good cause to excuse such failure, the complaint will be dismissed.

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 in forma pauperis 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.
