Cohen v. Texas
Cohen v. Texas
Trial Court Opinion
IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS DALLAS DIVISION
PEGGY COHEN, § PLAINTIFF, § § V. § CIVIL CASE NO. 3:25-CV-0840-D § TEXAS, § DEFENDANT. §
ORDER
The United States Magistrate Judge made findings, conclusions, and a recommendation in this case. Objections were filed. The undersigned district judge has reviewed de novo those portions of the proposed findings, conclusions, and recommendation to which objection was made, and reviewed the remaining proposed findings, conclusions, and recommendation for plain error. Finding no error, the court adopts the findings, conclusions, and recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge. The court prospectively certifies that any appeal of this action would not be taken in good faith. See
28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3); FED. R. APP. P. 24(a)(3). In support of this certification, the court adopts and incorporates by reference the magistrate judge’s findings, conclusions, and recommendation. See Baugh v. Taylor,
117 F.3d 197, 202 and n.21 (5th Cir. 1997). Based on the findings and recommendation, the court finds that any appeal of this action would present no legal point of arguable merit and would, therefore, be frivolous. Howard v. King,
707 F.2d 215, 220(5th Cir. 1983) (per curiam). If plaintiff appeals, she may challenge this certification by filing a separate motion to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal with the Clerk of Court, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. See Baugh,
117 F.3d at 202; FED. R. APP. P. 24(a)(5). SO ORDERED. May 27, 2025. ____________________________________ SIDNEY A. FITZWATER SENIOR JUDGE
