Date Filed Document Text
May 15, 2013 Opinion or Order Filing 29 OPINION & ORDER: re: 19 MOTION to Dismiss. Plaintiff Jose Rosario, proceeding pro se, brings this lawsuit, pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 1983, against defendants New York City (the "City of New York") and Warden Carlton Newton, alleging that his confinement in the custody of the New York City Department of Correction ("DOC"), after the state parole board had approved him for parole, violated his constitutional rights to due process and equal protection. Defendants move to dismiss the Complaint for failure to state a claim. For the reasons that follow, the motion is granted. Defendants' motion to dismiss the Complaint is granted. 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. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438,444-45 (1962). The Clerk of Court is directed to terminate the motion at docket number 19 and to close the case. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Paul A. Engelmayer on 5/15/2013) (rsh)
