Hussein v. Garland et al

Filing 2

ORDER. (See order for details) (Written Opinion) Signed by Judge Wilhelmina M. Wright on 10/6/2021. (RJE)

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
DISTRICT OF MINNESOTA
Gamada A. Hussein,

Case No. 21-mc-0064 (WMW)
Plaintiff,
ORDER

v.
Merrick Garland, U.S. Attorney General,
et al.,
Defendants.
This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff Gamada A. Hussein’s request for
authorization to file a new civil action. (Dkt. 1.) Hussein is restricted from filing new
cases in this District unless he is represented by counsel or receives prior written
authorization from a judicial officer of this District. See Gamada v. Whitaker, No. 19-cv0292 (JRT/HB), Dkt. 37 (D. Minn. Sept. 18, 2019). Upon review, the Court concludes
that Hussein’s proposed civil action lacks an arguable basis in either fact or law and,
therefore, is frivolous. See Neitzke v. Williams, 490 U.S. 319, 325 (1989); Coppedge v.
United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444–45 (1962). Accordingly, the request for authorization
is denied and this proceeding shall be closed. The Court also certifies that any appeal
taken from this denial would not be in good faith and, therefore, any request to proceed in
forma pauperis on appeal will be denied on that basis. See Fed. R. App. P. 24(a)(3)(A).
LET JUDGMENT BE ENTERED ACCORDINGLY.
