Trial Court Opinion
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK RAFAEL MARTINEZ-RAMOS, Plaintiff, 24 Civ. 7951 (PAE) ~ ORDER UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Defendant. PAUL A. ENGELMAYER, United States District Judge: By order dated October 22, 2024, the Court directed plaintiff, within thirty days, to submit a completed request to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP application”) and prisoner authorization or pay the $405.00 in fees required to file a civil action in this Court. See Dkt. 4. That order specified that failure to comply would result in dismissal of the Complaint. Jd. at 2. Plaintiff has not filed an IFP application and prisoner authorization or paid the fees. Accordingly, the Complaint 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). The Court respectfully directs the Clerk of Court to mail a copy of this order to plaintiff at the address on file and to close this case. SO ORDERED. Dated: December 16, 2024 nt A .
