| Filing 4 Motion to Dismiss Case by Christopher Cisco. (JA) Modified on 5/23/2025 to change to a motion (JA). |
TEXT ONLY ORDER entered by Judge Michael M. Mihm on 5/12/25. Plaintiff, detained in the Ford County Jail, sent a letter to this Court and to the United States Attorney's Office. The Clerk docketed it as a Civil Complaint #1 . The Court directed Plaintiff to pay the filing fee or move to proceed in forma pauperis, or the case would be dismissed. Plaintiff has now filed a Motion to Correct the Court #3 which is GRANTED in part and DENIED in part. Plaintiff asserts that his initial letter was not a civil complaint, but rather that he is an Electronic Criminal Surveillance Officer and sent the letter for an undiscernible purpose related to a criminal investigation that he states he is involved in pursuing. The document appears to be a request that the Department of Justice initiate a prosecution.Plaintiff is allowed 14 days to provide a status report further clarifying his position. If he clearly states that he did not and does not want to pursue the subject matter of his letter as a civil action this case will be terminated and no fee will be due, as the initial document is not, on its face, intended to be a civil complaint. Alternatively, Plaintiff can continue to pursue this case as a civil action, and if he does so he must pay the filing fee or move to proceed in forma pauperis within 14 days of this Order.Plaintiff appears to want some action from the Department of Justice. But Plaintiff acknowledges that he does not have the authority to initiate criminal proceedings in this Court. His request that they look into the matter is as much as he can do in that regard. (VH)
