Ibn Robinson v. Department of Corrections, et al.

Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK IBN ROBINSON, Plaintiff, 1:25-CV-9138 (LTS) -against- ORDER OF DISMISSAL DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, et al., Defendants. LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge: By order dated November 12, 2025, and entered November 17, 2025, the Court directed Plaintiff, within 30 days, to: (1) submit a signed complaint signature page; and (2) either submit a completed and signed in forma pauperis (“IFP”) application and prisoner authorization or pay the $405.00 fees required to file a civil action in this court. (ECF 4.) That order specified that failure to comply would result in dismissal of this action. (Id.) While Plaintiff has filed an IFP application and prisoner authorization, he has not submitted a signed complaint signature page. Accordingly, the Court dismisses this action without prejudice. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 11(a). 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 a judgment dismissing this action or the reason set forth in this order. SO ORDERED. Dated: February 26, 2026 New York, New York
