ORDER re: Motion for Permission for Electronic Case Filing. [ # 5 ] This court has carefully reviewed the final order of the district court, the record on appeal, and appellants motion for leave to file electronically. Based on this review, the court has determined that any issues which could be raised are insubstantial and that further briefing would not be helpful to the courts consideration of the issues. See Taylor v. City of New Albany, 979 F.2d 87 (7th Cir. 1992); Mather v. Vill. of Mundelein, 869 F.2d 356, 357 (7th Cir. 1989) (court can decide case on motions papers and record where briefing would not assist the court and no member of the panel desires briefing or argument). Summary disposition is appropriate when the position of one party is so clearly correct as a matter of law that no substantial question regarding the outcome of the appeal exists. Williams v. Chrans, 42 F.3d 1137, 1139 (7th Cir. 1995), citing Joshua v. United States, 17 F.3d 378, 380 (Fed. Cir. 1994). The district court, in its well-reasoned order, correctly dismissed Armstrongs amended complaint as factually frivolous. See Neitzke, 490 U.S. 319, 324-35 (1989) (term frivolous encompasses not only the inarguable legal conclusion, but also the fanciful factual allegation); Felton v. City of Chicago, 827 F.3d 632, 635 (7th Cir. 2016). Armstrong does not identify any error by the district court in his appellate filings and instead indicates that he will make the same confusing, factually frivolous arguments in this court. Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is summarily AFFIRMED and the motion to become an electronic filer is DENIED. Diane S. Sykes, Chief Judge; Ilana Diamond Rovner, Circuit Judge and Amy J. St. Eve, Circuit Judge. [10] [7348226] [23-3097] (AD) [Entered: 11/16/2023 09:08 AM]
