Green v. MZ 2640 Owner LLP
Trial Court Opinion
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK SHANTA GREEN; KELVIN ARRINGTON, Plaintiffs, 24-CV-2529 (LTS) -against- ORDER OF DISMISSAL MZ 2640 OWNER LLP; DESIREE PARKEY; MZ HOUSING DEVELOPMENT OF FUND CO. Defendants. LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge: By order dated April 5, 2024, the Court directed Plaintiffs, within thirty days, to (1) pay the $405.00 in fees required to file a civil action in this court or, (2) for both Plaintiffs, each submit a completed request to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP application”).1 That order specified that failure to comply would result in dismissal of the complaint. Plaintiffs have not filed IFP applications 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).
1 Plaintiff Kelvin Arrington did not sign the complaint. In its April 5, 2024 order, the Court directed Arrington to resubmit the signature page of the complaint with his signature. Arrington has not submitted a signed signature page. The Court directs the Clerk of Court to enter judgment. SO ORDERED. Dated: May 20, 2024 New York, New York
