Ronal Danilo Sandoval-Campos v. Homeland Security

Trial Court Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK RONAL DANILO SANDOVAL-CAMPOS, Petitioner, 25-CV-7993 (LTS) -against- ORDER OF DISMISSAL HOMELAND SECURITY, Respondent. LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge: On September 26, 2025, the court received this pro se petition for a writ of habeas corpus under

28 U.S.C. § 2254

, and opened it as a new civil action under this docket number. Petitioner Ronal Danilo Sandoval-Campos has previously filed another Section 2254 petition arising from the same events. See Sandoval-Campos v. Homeland Security, No. 24-CV-3854 (LLS) (S.D.N.Y. filed May 13, 2024) (“Sandoval-Campos I”). By order dated August 21, 2025, in Sandoval- Campos I, Judge Louis L. Stanton granted Petitioner leave to file a second amended petition. ECF 1:24-CV-3854, 15. The Court has reviewed the petition filed in this action and determined that it was opened in error as a new civil action, and that it should have been docketed as a Second Amended Petition in Sandoval-Campos I. The Court therefore directs the Clerk of Court to docket the petition in this action (ECF 1) as a Second Amended Petition in Sandoval-Campos I, No. 24-CV- 3854 (LLS). The Court further directs the Clerk of Court to close this action, No. 25-CV-7993 (LTS). CONCLUSION The Court directs the Clerk of Court to docket the petition in this action (ECF 1) as a Second Amended Petition in Sandoval-Campos I, No. 24-CV-3854 (LLS). The Court further directs the Clerk of Court to close this action, No. 25-CV-7993 (LTS). Because the petition at this time makes no substantial showing of a denial of a

constitutional right, a certificate of appealability will not issue. See

28 U.S.C. § 2253

. 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). SO ORDERED. Dated: October 2, 2025 New York, New York
