March 5, 2024 Opinion or Order Filing 7 CIVIL JUDGMENT: For the reasons stated in the March 1, 2024, order, this action is dismissed. The Court certifies under 28 U.S.C. 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from the Court's judgment would not be taken in good faith. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Chief Judge Laura Taylor Swain on 3/1/2024) (Attachments: #1 Pro Se Appeal Package) (tg)
March 1, 2024 Opinion or Order Filing 6 ORDER OF DISMISSAL: By order dated January 22, 2024, the Court directed Plaintiff, within thirty days, to submit a completed prisoner authorization, a blank copy of which was attached to the order, or pay the $405.00 in fees required to file a civil action in this court. That order specified that failure to comply would result in dismissal of the complaint. On January 22, 2024, Plaintiff submitted a second application to proceed in forma pauperis ("IFP"). He has not filed a prisoner authorization or paid the fees. Accordingly, the complaint is dismissed without prejudice. See 28 U.S.C. 1914, 1915. 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). The Court directs the Clerk of Court to enter judgment. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Chief Judge Laura Taylor Swain on 3/1/2024) (tg)
