## Opinion text

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK
KURELL BROWN,
Plaintiff,
25cv5066 (LTS)
-against-
CIVIL JUDGMENT
JAHNAH FERGUSON, ET AL.,
Defendants.
For the reasons stated in the September 24, 2025, order, this action is dismissed. The
Court certifies under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from the Court’s judgment 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: September 26, 2025
New York, New York
