In Roberts v. Waverly Job Center, Chief Judge Swain dismissed the action and denied pauper status for an appeal.
Jazmine I. Roberts’s action was dismissed, and she was denied permission to proceed without paying fees for an appeal. The provided judgment does not identify the claims or explain the dismissal’s effect on refiling.
What happened
In Roberts v. Waverly Job Center, the court entered a judgment dismissing Jazmine I. Roberts’s action against Waverly Job Center and other defendants. The judgment does not explain the underlying claims or the reason for dismissal; it refers to a May 29, 2025, order that is not included here.
The court certified that any appeal would not be taken in good faith. It therefore denied Roberts permission to proceed without paying court fees for an appeal.
Chief Judge Laura Taylor Swain signed the judgment on June 2, 2025. The judgment dismisses the action and denies fee-waiver status for an appeal; the provided text does not state whether the dismissal was with or without prejudice.

Ruling
The court entered a civil judgment dismissing the action “for the reasons stated” in a May 29, 2025, order. That earlier order is not included in the provided text, so the basis for dismissal and whether the court reached the merits cannot be determined from this judgment alone.
The court also certified under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that any appeal would not be taken in good faith. Based on that certification, it denied permission to proceed without paying the required fees for an appeal. The judgment does not state that the dismissal was with prejudice or without prejudice.
Disposition
The action was dismissed. Permission to proceed without paying fees for an appeal was denied. The judgment was signed by Chief United States District Judge Laura Taylor Swain.
