## Opinion text

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK
VLADIMIR LEON,
Plaintiff,
-against- 22-CV-3965 (LTS)
TOWN BOARD OF THE TOWN OF ORDER OF DISMISSAL
RAMAPO; EAST RAMAPO SCHOOLS
DISTRICT BOARD OF EDUCATION,
Defendants.
LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge:
By order dated July 18, 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. Accordingly, the complaint, filed in
forma pauperis (IFP) under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(1), is dismissed for failure to state a claim under
28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii).
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 case.
SO ORDERED.
Dated: October 17, 2022
New York, New York
