BRENDA C. ARMSTEAD, Petitioner, v. HONORABLE JUDGE ALVIN K. HELLERSTEIN, Respondent.
ORDER :
Petitioner brings this action pro se. On December 15, 2020, the Court received a single submission from Petitioner, but it was docketed twice and opened as two new civil actions: ECF 1:20-CV-10633 (UA) and ECF 1:20-CV-10647 (CM). The Court has reviewed the submissions in both actions and concludes that because they are identical, this action (ECF 1:20-CV-10647 (CM)) was opened in error. The Court therefore directs the Clerk of Court to administratively close this action, ECF 1:20-CV-10647 (CM).
CONCLUSION
The Court directs the Clerk of Court to mail a copy of this order to Petitioner and note service on the docket.
The Court further directs the Clerk of Court to administratively close this action, ECF 1:20-CV-10647 (CM).
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 in forma pauperis status is denied for the purpose of an appeal. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45 (1962). SO ORDERED. Dated: December 18, 2020
New York, New York
