Ruling

The court entered a civil judgment dismissing the action for the reasons stated in an April 14, 2025, order. The text of that earlier order is not provided, so this judgment alone does not identify the claims, the parties’ arguments, or the basis for dismissal.

Appeal and Filing-Fee Status

Under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3), the court certified that any appeal from the judgment would not be taken in good faith. It therefore denied in forma pauperis status for purposes of an appeal, meaning Coleman could not appeal without paying the required filing fees under that status.

Disposition

The action was dismissed. The judgment does not state whether the dismissal was with or without prejudice.
