SHAMAR CALLOWAY, Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER CYNTHIA BRANN, et al., Defendants.
ORDER OF DISMISSAL :
By order dated November 18, 2020, the Court directed Plaintiff to either pay the $400.00 in fees that are required to file a civil action in this court or submit a completed request to proceed in forma pauperis ("IFP application") and prisoner authorization within thirty days. On December 1, 2020, the order was returned to the Court with a notation on the envelope indicating that Plaintiff is no longer held at that facility. Plaintiff has not complied with the Court's order, has failed to notify the Court of a change of mailing address, and has not initiated any further contact with the Court, written or otherwise. Accordingly, Plaintiff's complaint, filed IFP pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(1), 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 at his last known address 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: December 11, 2020
New York, New York
