May 13, 2022 Filing 5 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION re #1 Complaint - It is recommended that the Complaint should be DISMISSED on Younger abstention grounds, and under 28 U.S.C. 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii) and (iii) for failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted because the claims seek monetary damages against defendants who are immune from such relief, and for abuse of the judicial process. The dismissal of these cases will each operate as a strike under the Prison Litigation Reform Act, 28 U.S.C. 1915(g). Once Ballard has received three strikes, he may not proceed as a pauper in federal court unless he is under imminent danger of serious physical injury. 28 U.S.C. 1915(g).. R&R flag set.
