MEMORANDUM & ORDER
25-CV-1033 (EK)
Defendants.
------------------------------------x
ERIC KOMITEE, United States District Judge:
By Order dated March 27, 2025, I denied plaintiffs’
requests to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP”) in light of their
invocation of the Fifth Amendment right to remain silent in
response to several questions on the IFP application, as well as
additional questions that they otherwise refused to answer. See
ECF No. 16. Plaintiffs were directed to either pay the filing
fee or submit completed IFP applications on or before May 6,
2025. Docket Order dated April 22, 2025. That order cautioned
that the case may be dismissed if they did not comply. Id.
Plaintiffs have failed to pay the filing fee or submit completed
IFP applications and the time for doing so has passed.
Accordingly, this action is dismissed without
prejudice. The Clerk of Court is respectfully requested to
enter judgment, mail a copy of this Order to plaintiffs, note

the mailing on the docket, and close this case. 	The Court
certifies pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that any appeal
from this order would not be taken in good faith, and therefore
denies in forma pauperis status for the purpose of an appeal.
See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45 (1962).
SO ORDERED.
