Plaintiff,

v.

ORDER DISMISSING ACTION

POPS MCGOVERN, et al.,
Defendants.

United States District Court
Northern District of California

13

Plaintiff, having been granted leave to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP”), now seeks

14

service of process upon the named defendants of his First Amended Complaint (“FAC”) and

15

related documents. The prior complaint was dismissed for failure to comply with Rule 8’s

16

pleading standards and failure to set forth a cognizable claim. The FAC, over ninety pages in

17

length, again falls short of meeting these requirements. In light of the Court’s continuing duty to

18

dismiss any case in which a party seeks leave to proceed in forma pauperis if the Court determines

19

that the action (1) is frivolous or malicious; (2) fails to state a claim on which relief may be

20

granted; or (3) seeks monetary relief against a defendant who is immune from such relief, see 28

21

U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2), this action must be dismissed with prejudice.

22
23

IT IS SO ORDERED.
