Filing 5

ORDER dismissing this action without prejudice, and denying leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal, by Judge Christine M. Arguello on 10/27/15. (dkals, )

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Civil Action No. 15-cv-02069-LTB
YOHANIA MARTIN,
Plaintiff,
v.
Equal Employment Opportunities Commission,
Defendant.

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

On September 18, 2015, Plaintiff, Yohania Martin, submitted to the court a
complaint (ECF No. 1). As part of the court’s review pursuant to D.C.COLO.LCivR
8.1(b), the court determined that Ms. Martin’s pleadings were deficient. In an order
entered on September 21, 2015, Magistrate Judge Gordon P. Gallagher directed
Plaintiff to cure certain deficiencies if she wished to pursue his claims (ECF No. 4).
Specifically, Magistrate Judge Gallagher ordered Plaintiff to file a proper request to
proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to § 1915 on proper Court-approved forms with
information on her income, assets, and obligations. The Order further ordered Plaintiff

to file a Complaint on proper court-approved forms. That Order specifically informed
Plaintiff that the action would be dismissed without further notice if she failed to cure the
deficiencies within thirty days.
Plaintiff has not filed anything with the Court since she filed her Complaint. Thus,
she has failed to cure the deficiencies within the time allowed. Therefore, the action will
be dismissed without prejudice for failure to cure the noted deficiencies.

The Court also certifies pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from
this Order is not taken in good faith, and, therefore, in forma pauperis status is denied
for the purpose of appeal. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438 (1962). If
Plaintiff files a notice of appeal she must also pay the full $505 appellate filing fee or file
a motion to proceed in forma pauperis in the Tenth Circuit within thirty days in
accordance with Fed. R. App. P. 24. Accordingly, it is
ORDERED that the Complaint and the action are dismissed without prejudice
pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b) for failure to cure the deficiencies, for failure to
prosecute and for filued to obey a court order. It is
FURTHER ORDERED that leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal is
denied. It is
FURTHER ORDERED that all pending motions are denied as moot.
DATED at Denver, Colorado, this 27th day of October, 2015.
BY THE COURT:

Christine M. Arguello
United States District Judge, for
LEWIS T. BABCOCK, Senior Judge
United States District Court
