Filing 10 SUMMONS ISSUED as to Rufian Arshad, James Marcinek, Philip Meagher, The City of New York. (aan) |
Filing 9 ORDER OF SERVICE: The Court dismisses Plaintiff's claims against Justice Best under the doctrine of judicial immunity and as frivolous. See 28 U.S.C. 1915(e)(2)(B)(i), (iii). The Court dismisses Plaintiff claims against Assistant District Attorneys Riddle and Rivet under the doctrine of prosecutorial immunity. See id. The Court also dismisses Plaintiff's remaining claims for injunctive and declaratory relief in his complaint, and denies his application for a temporary restraining order and a preliminary injunction (ECF 3), without prejudice to Plaintiff's filing a petition for a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. 2241 after Plaintiff has exhausted his available state-court remedies. The Court further denies Plaintiff's application for the appointment of counsel without prejudice to Plaintiff's filing an application for the Court to request pro bono counsel at a later date. (ECF 6.) The Clerk of Court is further instructed to issue summonses, complete the USM-285 forms with the addresses for Fire Marshal Philip Meagher, Officer James Marcinek, Officer Rufian Arshad, and the City of New York, and deliver to the U.S. Marshals Service all documents necessary to effect service on these defendants. The Court certifies under 28 U.S.C. 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from this order would not be taken in good faith, and therefore IFP status is denied for the purpose of an appeal. Cf. Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45 (1962) (holding that an appellant demonstrates good faith when he seeks review of a nonfrivolous issue). SO ORDERED. Motions terminated: #6 APPLICATION for the Court to Request Counsel, filed by Michael Nieves. (Signed by Judge Lewis J. Liman on 10/13/2021) (va) Transmission to Pro Se Assistants for processing. |
