In Anorak Co. Ltd. v. Cherloi Global, Judge Swain dismissed the action and denied public-funded appeal status.
The action brought by Anorak Co. Ltd. against Cherloi Global was dismissed. Anorak Co. Ltd. was also denied permission to pursue an appeal without paying the required filing costs.
What happened
Anorak Co. Ltd. v. Cherloi Global ended when the Southern District of New York dismissed the action. The judgment says the dismissal was based on reasons given in a January 22, 2025 order, but that order is not included here.
The court also certified that any appeal would not be taken in good faith. As a result, it denied the plaintiff permission to appeal without paying the filing costs.
Judge Laura Taylor Swain signed the judgment on January 24, 2025. The available text does not explain the underlying basis for dismissal or identify whether the court reached the merits.
The detailed version
- Anorak Co. Ltd. v. Cherloi Global · No. 1:24-cv-09544
- Laura Swain
- Jan. 24, 2025
Disposition
The court entered a civil judgment dismissing the action “for the reasons stated” in its January 22, 2025 order. That earlier order is not part of the provided text, so the available judgment does not state the grounds for dismissal or whether the court reached the merits.
Appeal-Filing Costs
Under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3), the court certified that an appeal from the judgment would not be taken in good faith. It therefore denied the plaintiff permission to appeal without paying the required filing costs. The judgment cites Coppedge v. United States for the principle that good faith requires seeking review of a nonfrivolous issue.
Judge
Chief United States District Judge Laura Taylor Swain signed the judgment on January 24, 2025, in New York, New York.
