ORDER OF DISMISSAL: Accordingly, the Court dismisses this action without prejudice. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1914, 1915; Fed. R. Civ. P. 11(a). Plaintiff has consented to electronic service of court documents. (ECF 3.) The Court certifies under 2 8 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). (Signed by Judge Laura Taylor Swain on 11/16/2021) (sac)

Defendant.
LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge:
By orders dated September 14, 2021, the Court directed Plaintiff, within 30 days, to
(1) submit an amended in forma pauperis (IFP) application or pay the $402.00 in fees required to
file a civil action in this court, and (2) resubmit the signature page of his complaint with his
original signature. Both orders specified that failure to comply would result in dismissal of this
action. Plaintiff has not filed an amended IFP application, paid the fees, or resubmitted the
signature page of his complaint with an original signature. Accordingly, the Court dismisses this
action without prejudice. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1914, 1915; Fed. R. Civ. P. 11(a).
Plaintiff has consented to electronic service of court documents. (ECF 3.)
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.
