21 Civ. 9645 (AT)

CHIKEZIE OTTAH, Plaintiff, v. VERIFONE SYSTEM INC., Defendant.
ORDER
ANALISA TORRES UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Plaintiff brings this action pro se. To proceed with a civil action in this Court, a plaintiff must either pay $402.00 in fees - a $350.00 filing fee plus a $52.00 administrative fee. Plaintiff submitted a check in the amount of $405.00, thus overpaying the fees by $3.00.
The Clerk of Court is directed to: (1) accept Plaintiffs $405.00 check; (2) issue a check in the amount of $3.00; and (3) send the check and copy of this order to Plaintiff by certified mail.
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. Cf. Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45 (1962) (holding that appellant demonstrates good faith when seeking review of a nonfrivolous issue).
SO ORDERED.
