IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED: 1) Plaintiff has filed a motion for emergency relief 36 , in which he repeats the allegations of the complaint and reasserts claims for injunctive relief and money damages. 36 is DENIED for the reasons indicated herein. 2) The third amended complaint is DISMISSED without prejudice, for failure to state a claim pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6) and 28 U.S.C. § 1915A. Any further amendment would be futile as Plaintiff's claim is barred under Heck v. Humphrey, 512 U.S. 477 (1994). This case is therefore closed. All deadlines and pending motions are VACATED. The clerk is directed to enter a judgment pursuant to Fed. R. Civ.
