Date Filed Document Text
January 5, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 7 ORDER re Rule 4(m) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure: The Honorable Rachel P. Kovner assigned this case to me for all pretrial purposes. Enclosed is a copy of the Individual Practices of Magistrate Judge Marcia M. Henry. The Court's records reflect that the complaint in this action was filed on December 5, 2022. Rule 4(m) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure provides: "If a defendant is not served within 90 days after the complaint is filed, the court on motion or on its own after notice to the plaintiff must dismiss the action without prejudice against that defendant or order that service be made within a specified time. But if the plaintiff shows good cause for the failure, the court must extend the time for service for an appropriate period." Accordingly, if service is not made upon the defendant by March 6, 2023, or plaintiff fails to show good cause why such service has not been effected, it will be recommended that the Court dismiss this action without prejudice. Plaintiff is required to advise the Clerk of Court of any change of address. Failure to keep the Court informed of plaintiff's current address means the Court will not know where to contact plaintiff and may result in dismissal of the case.For information regarding court procedures, plaintiff may contact the Pro Se Office at the United States Courthouse by calling (718) 613-2665 or by visiting the court's website at #www.nyed.uscourts.gov/self-representation. So Ordered by Magistrate Judge Marcia M. Henry on 01/05/2023. (RC)

December 13, 2022 Opinion or Order ORDER: Plaintiff's motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis #2 is denied. In forma pauperis status exists so that no one need choose between her legal rights and "the necessities of life." Brodsky v. J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., No. 17-CV-5529 (JS) (AYS), 2019 WL 2330857, at *1 (E.D.N.Y. May 31, 2019) (quoting Adkins v. E.I. Du Pont De Nemours & Co., 335 U.S. 331, 349 (1948)). Plaintiff reports a monthly income of approximately $3,000 set against monthly expenses of $1,150 and debt of approximately $3,900. See Mot. for Leave to Proceed In Forma Pauperis 2 (Dkt. #2). This application indicates that plaintiff can "pay the filing fee and still have the necessities of life." Ginsberg v. Comm'r of Soc. Sec., No. 21-CV-207 (JMA), 2021 WL 1428580, at *1 (E.D.N.Y. Apr. 15, 2021). The motion is therefore denied, and plaintiff is directed to pay the filing fee within fourteen days of this Order. Ordered by Judge Rachel P. Kovner on 12/13/2022.
