Gabriel Bar Shany, et al. v. Chris Tinsley, et al.
Trial Court Opinion
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK
GABRIEL BAR SHANY, ET AL.,
Plaintiffs,
25-CV-8040 (LTS)
-against-
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
CHRIS TINSLEY, ET AL.,
Defendants.
LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge:
By order dated September 29, 2025, the Court directed Plaintiffs, within thirty days, to
submit completed requests to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP”) 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. Plaintiffs have not filed IFP applications 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: October 31, 2025
New York, New York
