ORDER
VINCENT L. BRICCETTI, District Judge.
On November 19, 2019, defendant filed a letter requesting a pre-motion discovery conference due to pro se plaintiff's failure to submit initial disclosures and failure to respond to any document request or interrogatory. (Doc. #44). The same day, the Court ordered plaintiff by December 3, 2019, to respond in writing to defendant's letter. (Doc. #45).
Plaintiff failed to respond to defendant's letter by December 3, 2019. Thus, the Court sua sponte extended to December 26, 2019, plaintiff's time to respond. (Doc. #48). Nonetheless, to date, plaintiff still has not responded to defendant's letter.
Accordingly, the Court sua sponte extends to January 21, 2020, plaintiff's time to respond to defendant's letter.
If plaintiff fails to comply with this Order, the Court will impose sanctions, including, but not limited to, potential dismissal of this case. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 37(b)(2), 41(b).
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 in forma pauperis status is denied for the purposes of an appeal. Cf. Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45 (1962).
The Clerk is directed to mail a copy of this Order to plaintiff at the address on the docket.
SO ORDERED.
