Disposition

The court entered a civil judgment dismissing the action. The judgment says the dismissal was based on the reasons stated in the court's August 20, 2025, order, but that order is not included in the provided text. As a result, the available text does not identify the claims, the factual background, or the specific ground for dismissal. It also does not state that the dismissal was with or without prejudice.

Appeal-related ruling

The court certified under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from the judgment would not be taken in good faith. It therefore denied Taylor's in forma pauperis status—that is, permission to proceed without paying filing fees—for purposes of an appeal. This ruling concerns the ability to proceed without fees; the text does not state that it separately prohibited an appeal.

Judge

The judgment was signed by Laura Taylor Swain, Chief United States District Judge, and dated August 22, 2025, in New York, New York.
