AZRACK, United States District Judge:
By Order dated June 30, 2017 (the “Order”), the Court denied the applications of pro se
plaintiff Keysean L. Keyes (“plaintiff”), a frequent filer in this Court, to proceed in forma pauperis
in these cases because plaintiff has already had more than three in forma pauperis
complaints sua sponte dismissed as frivolous and/or for failure to state a claim upon which relief
may be granted pursuant to 28 U.S.C. '' 1915(e)(2(B)(i)-(ii). See Keyes v. Nassau Cty. Ct. and
Sup. Ct., et al., 16-CV-4016; Keyes v. Sullivan, 16-CV-4989; Keyes v. Nassau Cty. Sheriff=s Dep=t,

et al., 16-CV-5482; Keyes v. Nassau Cty. Corr. Facility, et al., 16-CV-5483; Keyes v. The District
Att’y, et al., 16-CV-5484; Keyes v. The People of the State of N.Y., and 16-CV-5485; and Keyes
v. Sullivan, et al., 16-CV-5486 (all dismissed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. '' 1915(e)(2)(b) and 1915A(b)
for failure to allege a plausible claim for relief).
Plaintiff was directed to pay the $350 filing fee for each of these complaints within fourteen
(14) days of the date of the Order. The Order warned plaintiff that a “[f]ailure to do so will lead
to the dismissal of her claims without further notice and judgment shall enter in each case.” See
Order, Docket Entry No. 7 in 16-CV-7041 and 16-CV-7042; Docket Entry No. 10 in 17-CV-181.)
To date, plaintiff has not paid the filing fees, nor has she otherwise communicated with the Court
about these cases. Accordingly, the complaints are dismissed without prejudice and the Clerk of
the Court shall enter judgment and mail a copy of this Order to the plaintiff at her last known
address.
The Court certifies pursuant to 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 any appeal. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444–45 (1962).
SO ORDERED.
