Date Filed Document Text
March 31, 2023 Filing 5 CLERK'S JUDGMENT that the complaint is dismissed as frivolous, 28 U.S.C. 1915(e)(2)(B); that the Court declines to grant the plaintiff leave to amend her complaint, See Jordan v. New York State Dept of Lab., 811 F. App'x 58, 59-60 (2d Cir. 2020); that pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1915(a)(3), any appeal from this order would not be taken in good faith; and that in forma pauperis status is denied for the purpose of an appeal. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45 (1962). Signed Brenna B. Mahoney, Clerk of Court by Jalitza Poveda, Deputy Clerk on 3/31/2023. (c/m to pro se with appeals packet) (TLH)
March 29, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 4 MEMORANDUM AND ORDER. The complaint, filed in forma pauperis, is dismissed as frivolous. 28 U.S.C. 1915(e)(2)(B). While district courts generally grant pro se plaintiffs the opportunity to amend their complaints, courts need not do so if it is clear that amending the complaint would be futile. Because the defendants are immune from suit, the defects in the plaintiffs complaint cannot be cured with an amendment. Accordingly, the Court declines to grant the plaintiff leave to amend her complaint. See Jordan v. New York State Dep't of Lab., 811 F. App'x 58, 59-60 (2d Cir. 2020) (finding that the district court did not err in denying leave to amend because the defendant was immune from suit and amendment would have been futile). 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 respectfully directed to enter judgment and close this case. The Clerk of Court is further directed to mail a copy of this Memorandum and Order to the plaintiff and to note the mailing on the docket. Ordered by Judge Ann M. Donnelly on 3/28/2023. (DG)
