UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK 1:24-CV-8608 (LTS) IN RE: CHRISTINE HARDMAN ORDER OF DISMISSAL LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge: By order dated December 2, 2025, the Court directed Christine Hardman, within 30 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. That order specified that failure to comply would result in dismissal of this action. Hardman has not filed an IFP application and prisoner authorization or paid the fees. Accordingly, the Court dismisses this action without prejudice. See

, 1915. The Court certifies, under

(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,

(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 a judgment dismissing this action for the reason set forth in this order. SO ORDERED. Dated: February 3, 2025 New York, New York
