Ludwig v. Department Of Social Services Human Resources Administration
Trial Court Opinion
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK YOLANDA LUDWIG, Plaintiff, -against- 24-CV-9302 (LTS) DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES ORDER OF DISMISSAL HUMAN RESOURCES ADMINISTRATION; 1 CENTRE STREET COMPTROLLER OFFICE, Defendants. LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge: By order dated December 11, 2024, the Court directed Plaintiff, within 30 days, to submit a completed request to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP application”) or pay the $405.00 in fees required to file a civil action in this court. That order specified that failure to comply would result in dismissal of the complaint. Plaintiff has not filed an IFP application 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 directs the Clerk of Court to enter judgment in this case. SO ORDERED. Dated: January 22, 2025 New York, New York
