ORDER DISMISSING CASE, Signed by District Judge John Corbett O'Meara. (WBar)

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION

SHARON BRIDGEWATER,
Case No. 12-14469
Plaintiff,
Honorable John Corbett O’Meara
v.
BARAK [sic] OBAMA, et. al.,
Defendants.
/
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
Plaintiff Sharon Bridgewater filed a complaint, along with an application to proceed in forma
pauperis, October 9, 2012. The court will grant her application to proceed IFP.
Pursuant to 28 U.S.C.§ 1915(e)(2)(B), the court may dismiss any action filed in forma
pauperis that is factually frivolous, is malicious, fails to state a claim upon which relief may be
granted, or seeks monetary relief against a defendant who is immune from suit.

Factual

frivolousness includes allegations that are “clearly baseless,” “fantastic,” or “delusional.” See
Neitzke v. Williams, 490 U.S. 319, 327-28 (1989). The court finds Plaintiff’s complaint frivolous
pursuant to Section 1915(e), as it is both fantastic and delusional.
It is hereby ORDERED that plaintiff Bridgewater’s application to proceed in forma pauperis
is GRANTED.
It is further ORDERED that the complaint is DISMISSED.
