Salaam v. City of New York
Trial Court Opinion
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AZIZ SALAAM, Plaintiff, 1:23-CV-8228 (LTS) -against- ORDER OF DISMISSAL CITY OF NEW YORK, et al., Defendants. LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge: By order dated November 6, 2023, the Court granted Plaintiff leave to file an amended complaint within 60 days. That order specified that failure to comply would result in dismissal of this action; the Court would dismiss Plaintiff’s claims under
42 U.S.C. § 1983for failure to state a claim on which relief may be granted, and would decline to consider, under its supplemental jurisdiction, Plaintiff’s claims under state law. Plaintiff has not filed an amended complaint. Accordingly, the Court dismisses this action; the Court dismisses Plaintiff’s claims under Section 1983 for failure to state a claim on which relief may be granted, see
28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii), and declines to consider, under its supplemental jurisdiction, Plaintiff’s claims under state law, see
28 U.S.C. § 1367(c)(3). 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). The Court directs the Clerk of Court to issue a judgment dismissing this action. SO ORDERED. Dated: February 8, 2024 New York, New York
