Date Filed Document Text
July 10, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 5 ORDER TO AMEND: The Court dismisses without prejudice any claims that Plaintiff is asserting on behalf of her minor child. Plaintiff's complaint, filed in forma pauperis under 28 U.S.C. 1915(a)(1), is dismissed for failure to state a claim on which relief can be granted and based on Eleventh Amendment immunity. Plaintiff is granted leave to file an amended complaint that complies with the standards set forth above. Plaintiff must submit the amended complaint to this Court's Pro Se Intake Unit within 60 days of the date of this order, caption the document as an "Amended Complaint," and label the document with docket number 23-CV-4477 (LTS). An Amended Complaint form is attached to this order. No summons will issue at this time. If Plaintiff fails to comply within the time allowed, and she cannot show good cause to excuse such failure, the complaint will be dismissed for failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted and Eleventh Amendment immunity, and the Court will decline to exercise supplemental jurisdiction, 28 U.S.C. 1367(c)(3), of any state law claims. 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 in forma pauperis status is denied for the purpose of an appeal. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45 (1962). SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Laura Taylor Swain on 7/10/2023) (sac)
