| Filing 8 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins: Plaintiff has filed an amended complaint #6 . Because his IFP application was granted, the Clerk is instructed to: (1) issue 3 summons for service of the complaint for each of the Defendants; and (2) send Plaintiff 3 blank USM-285 service forms. By April 3, 2024, Plaintiff shall return all 3 completed USM-285 forms to the Clerk's Office, one form for each Defendant, which are required for service. The U.S. Marshal is appointed to serve the Defendants, but the U.S. Marshal will not attempt service on any Defendant unless and until the required forms are received. The Court directs the Marshal to make all reasonable efforts to serve each Defendant.

| Filing 5 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Lindsay C. Jenkins: Plaintiff's application for leave to proceed in forma pauperis #3 is granted because his application establishes that he is unable to pay the filing fee. 28 U.S.C. 1915(a)(1). Although Plaintiff reports that he worked as recently as last week, he has less than $400 in bank accounts, has substantial credit card debt, and has monthly expenses roughly equal to his previous monthly take-home pay. However, the Court strikes Plaintiff's Complaint #1 because it does not contain "a short and plain statement of the claim showing that" Plaintiff "is entitled to relief." Fed. R. Civ. P. 8(a)(2). Plaintiff states that Delta Air Lines Inc. discriminated and retaliated against him in violation of Title VII, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the Family and Medical Leave Act. But he did not fill in item E. of the employment discrimination form complaint, which states: "The facts of my case are as follows." If Plaintiff wishes to proceed with this lawsuit, he must file an amended complaint by March 19, 2024 that contains the factual basis for his claims. All that is required is a straightforward account of who Plaintiff alleges discriminated against him, what form the discrimination took, and when and where it occurred. Plaintiff should fill out a new copy of the complaint form and include all relevant information; the Court will not refer back to the original Complaint when evaluating an amended complaint. Mailed notice. (jlj, ) |
