ORDER entered by Judge Colin Stirling Bruce on 8/18/2025. Plaintiff's Complaint is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE because it fails to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. 28 U.S.C. Sec 1915A; Fed. R. Civ. Pro. 12(b)(6). This case is closed, and all pending motions are denied as moot. The Clerk of the Court is directed to enter judgment in Defendants' favor and against Plaintiff pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 58. The Clerk of the Court is also directed to add this dismissal to the Court's "three-strikes" list under the Prison Litigation Reform Act. Plaintiff is advised that this dismissal may count as a "strike" under 28 U.S.C. 1915(g). If a court determines in the future that he has accumulated three strikes, Plaintiff may be prohibited from proceeding in forma pauperis in future litigation. If he wishes to appeal this dismissal, Plaintiff must file a notice of appeal with this Court within thirty (30) days of the entry of judgment. Fed. R. App. P. 4(a). A motion for leave to appeal in forma pauperis should set forth the issues that Plaintiff plans to present on appeal. Fed. R. App. P. 24(a)(1)(C). If he chooses to appeal, Plaintiff will be liable for the $605.00 appellate filing fee regardless of the outcome of the appeal. See written order. (KE)

TEXT ORDER entered by Judge Colin Stirling Bruce on 5/23/2025. The Court's May 22, 2025 Text Order regarding the payment of the filing fee or the filing of a motion to proceed in forma pauperis is STRICKEN as improvidently filed.

TEXT ORDER entered by Judge Colin Stirling Bruce on 5/23/2025. Plaintiff's motion to issue summons #4 is DENIED as premature.

See 28 USC Section 1915A. After the Court conducts a merit review of Plaintiff's Complaint and if the Court determines that his Complaint states a valid claim, the Court will consider Plaintiff's request to assist him with effecting service of process.
