Trial Court Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK LEZHEN LIU, Plaintiff, 25-CV-5118 (LTS) -against- ORDER OF DISMISSAL URBAN PATHWAYS, Defendant.

LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge: By order dated June 23, 2025, the Court denied Plaintiff leave to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP), and directed Plaintiff, within 30 days, to 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 paid the fees or otherwise communicated with the Court.

Accordingly, the complaint is dismissed without prejudice. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1914, 1915.

All pending motions are denied, and the Clerk of Court is directed to terminate them. (ECF 4, 7.)

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.
