MEMORANDUM Opinion and Order. Plaintiff seeks to proceed in forma pauperis ("IFP") in this suit against Walgreens and one of its security guards. Plaintiff's IFP application states that neither he nor anyone who lives at the same addre ss has any income or assets, but it does not explain how he pays for day-to-day living expenses. Even if plaintiff is indigent, however, the Court could not grant his IFP application because it does not "state a claim on which relief may be gran ted." See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(ii). Plaintiff complains that a Walgreens security guard followed him around a Walgreens store, "snatched the product" plaintiff planned to buy "out of [his] hands," yelled at plaintiff, and "publicly embrassed [sic] [him] in front of strangers." (Compl. at 4-5.) These allegations do not state a federal claim or engage the Court's diversity jurisdiction. Accordingly, the Court dismisses this suit for lack of subject ma tter jurisdiction and strikes as moot plaintiff's IFP application 4 and motion for attorney representation 5 . This case is terminated. Civil case terminated. Signed by the Honorable Jorge L. Alonso on 10/1/2015:Notice mailed by judge's staff (ntf, )
