Disposition

The court entered a civil judgment dismissing the action. It stated that the dismissal was for the reasons given in the court’s July 9, 2026, order. That earlier order is not included in the provided text, so the basis for dismissal cannot be determined from this judgment alone.

Appeal Certification

Under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3), the court certified that any appeal from the judgment would not be taken in good faith. The judgment cites a Supreme Court decision explaining that an appeal is taken in good faith when the appellant seeks review of a nonfrivolous issue.

Judge and Date

Chief United States District Judge Laura Taylor Swain signed the judgment on July 17, 2026, in New York, New York.
