Zubair v. Bank of America

Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AHMED HUSAIN ZUBAIR, Plaintiff, 20-CV-1308 (CM) -against- ORDER OF DISMISSAL BANK OF AMERICA, et al., Defendants. COLLEEN McMAHON, Chief United States District Judge: By order dated February 24, 2020, the Court directed Plaintiff, within thirty days, to resubmit the signature page of the complaint with an original signature, and either pay the $400.00 in filing fees that are required to file a civil action in this Court or submit a completed amended request to proceed in forma pauperis (“amended IFP application”). That order specified that failure to comply would result in dismissal of the complaint. On March 9, 2020, Plaintiff submitted a signed signature page, but he has not paid the fees or filed an amended IFP application. Accordingly, the complaint is dismissed without prejudice. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1914, 1915. The Clerk of Court is directed to mail a copy of this order to Plaintiff and note service on the docket. 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). SO ORDERED. Dated: April 27, 2020 , New York, New York Bu. ly Wyk COLLEEN McMAHON Chief United States District Judge
