UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK ABDELNASSER A. ABDRABBO, Plaintiff, 1:26-CV-8538 (LTS) -against- UNITED STATES CITIZENSHIP AND ORDER OF DISMISSAL IMMIGRATION SERVICES, et al., Defendants. LAURA TAYLOR SWAIN, Chief United States District Judge: Plaintiff Abdelnasser A. Abdrabbo, who is appearing pro se, brings this action asserting claims for mandamus relief and/or relief under the Administrative Procedure Act. The Court dismisses this action for the following reason. Plaintiff previously commenced another pro se action in this court by filing a virtually identical complaint. That other pro se action is pending before District Judge Dale E. Ho of this court. See Abdrabbo v. USCIS, 1:26-CV-8095 (DEH). As this action raises the same claims as raised in Abdrabbo, 1:26-CV-8095 (DEH), no useful purpose would be served by litigating this duplicative action. The Court therefore dismisses this action without prejudice as duplicative of Abdrabbo, 1:26-CV-8095 (DEH). CONCLUSION The Court dismisses this action without prejudice as duplicative of Abdrabbo, 1:26-CV- 8095 (DEH). The Court certifies, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. ยง 1915(a)(3), that any appeal from this order would not be taken in good faith and, therefore, in forma pauperis status is denied for the purpose of an appeal. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45 (1962). The Court directs the Clerk of Court to enter a civil judgment dismissing this action for the reason set forth in this order. SO ORDERED.
