Date Filed Document Text
December 18, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 16 JUDGMENT: It is ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED that the plaintiff take nothing of the defendants, that all claims brought by the plaintiff are dismissed, and that this case is hereby closed. SO ORDERED by Chief Judge Roslynn R. Mauskopf, on 12/18/2020. (Copy of this Judgment and the attached appeals packet sent to pro se Plaintiff via regular mail.) (Latka-Mucha, Wieslawa)
December 18, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 15 MEMORANDUM & ORDER: Although Volovets paid the filing fee to commence this action, the complaint is dismissed. Accordingly, because granting leave to amend would be futile, and because Volovets's proposed amended complaint does not (and cannot) cure any of the deficiencies identified in this Memorandum and Order, Volovets's #11 motion to amend the complaint and #13 request for a hearing are denied. The Court certifies pursuant to 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. The Clerk of Court is directed to enter judgment in favor of defendants, to mail a copy of the judgment and this Memorandum and Order to Volovets, to note that mailing on the docket sheet, and to close thiscase. SO ORDERED by Chief Judge Roslynn R. Mauskopf, on 12/18/2020. C/mailed. (Latka-Mucha, Wieslawa)
