Robinson v. Doe
Robinson v. Doe
Trial Court Opinion
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK
ISRAEL ROBINSON,
Plaintiff,
25-CV-5588 (LTS)
-against-
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
DOE,
Defendant.
LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge:
By order dated July 9, 2025, 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 if he wished to proceed with this action. That order specified that failure
to comply would result in dismissal of the complaint. 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 directs the Clerk of Court to enter judgment in this case.
SO ORDERED.
Dated: August 12, 2025
New York, New York
