Jane Doe v. Related Companies LLP

Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK JANE DOE, Plaintiff, 22-CV-7683 (LTS) -against- ORDER OF DISMISSAL RELATED COMPANIES, LLP, et al., Defendants. LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge: By order dated September 19, 2022, the Court directed Plaintiff to file an amended complaint within sixty days. That order specified that failure to comply would result in dismissal of the complaint. Plaintiff has not filed an amended complaint, and the time to do so has expired.1 Accordingly, the complaint is dismissed for Plaintiff’s failure to comply with the Court’s order, without prejudice to Plaintiff’s refiling it. 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 Clerk of Court is directed to enter judgment in this matter. SO ORDERED. Dated: December 2, 2022 New York, New York

1 Plaintiff objected to the Court’s denial of the application to proceed anonymously but did not lodge an amended complaint with the Court, either under a pseudonym or with Plaintiff’s true name.
