ORDER DISMISSING CASE, CERTIFYING AN APPEAL WOULD NOT BE TAKEN IN GOOD FAITH AND NOTIFYING PLAINTIFF OF APPELLATE FILING FEE
On August 27, 2020, the Court issued an order dismissing Plaintiff Damien Boone’s pro se complaint and granting leave to file an amended complaint. (ECF No. 5.) Boone was warned that if he failed to file an amended complaint within twenty-one days, the Court would dismiss the case in its entirety, assess a strike pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 1915(g), and enter judgment. (Id. at PageID 26.) Boone has not filed an amended complaint, and the time within which to do so has expired. Therefore, this case is DISMISSED with prejudice in its entirety, and judgment will be entered in accordance with the August 27, 2020, order dismissing the original complaint for failure to state a claim on which relief may be granted. Boone is assessed his first strike under § 1915(g). This strike shall take effect when judgment is entered. See Coleman v. Tollefson,
135 S. Ct. 1759, 1763-64(2015). It is CERTIFIED, pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) and Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 24(a), that any appeal in this matter by Boone would not be taken in good faith. If Boone nevertheless files a notice of appeal and wishes to pay the $505 appellate filing
fee using the installment procedures of the Prison Litigation Reform Act,
28 U.S.C. §§ 1915(a)-(b), he also must submit a new in forma pauperis affidavit and a current copy of his inmate trust account statement for the last six months. The Clerk is directed to prepare a judgment. IT IS SO ORDERED. s/ James D. Todd JAMES D. TODD UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
