The Court declines to consider, under its supplemental jurisdiction, Plaintiff's state-law claims. See 28 U.S.C. 1367(c)(3).

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. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45 (1962). The Court directs the Clerk of Court not to close this action, as the Court has granted Plaintiff leave to replead his claims in an amended complaint.
