No. 4:13-CV-2233 CAS

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Over the past three months, plaintiff has filed numerous delusional and frivolous cases in
this Court regarding a religiously-motivated conspiracy against his family.1 Plaintiff alleges that
the government is using racism, terrorism and Satanism against him and trying to murder his family
because they are Christians and preachers of the gospel. The complaint also names as defendants
“the prejudice[d] sheriffs of America,” “the prejudice[d] white police (in St. Louis, Mo.),” “the
prejudice[d] ungodly, Satan possessed black polices [sic] & the ungodly, prejudice[d], white race
and the prejudice[d], ungodly black race.”

Gov’t, No. 4:13-CV-1560 RWS (E.D. Mo. 2013); Warren v. Federal Gov’t, No. 4:13-CV-1570JAR

4:13-CV-1998 SNLJ (E.D. Mo. 2013); Warren v. Federal Gov’t, No. 4:13-CV-2069 SPM (E.D. Mo.
2013); Warren v. Federal Gov’t, No. 4:13-CV-2093 DDN (E.D. Mo. 2013); Warren v. Federal
Gov’t, No. 4:13-CV-2147 JAR (E.D. Mo. 2013); Warren v. Federal Gov’t, No. 4:13-CV-2206 JAR
(E.D. Mo. 2013).

The Court previously warned plaintiff that it would not allow him to proceed in forma
pauperis if he continued to bring the same frivolous lawsuits again and again. See Warren v.
Federal Government, 4:13-CV-1878 CEJ (E.D. Mo.). This case is no different from plaintiff’s
previous cases. Consequently, the Court will deny plaintiff’s motion for leave to proceed in forma
pauperis and will dismiss this action without prejudice to refiling as a fully-paid complaint. See In
re Tyler, 839 F.2d 1290, 1292 (8th Cir. 1988) (“Judicial resources are limited in the short run and
need to be protected from wasteful consumption. Frivolous, bad faith claims consume a significant
amount of judicial resources, diverting the time and energy of the judiciary away from processing
good faith claims.”).
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff’s motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis
is DENIED. [Doc. 2]
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that this action is DISMISSED, without prejudice.
A separate Order of Dismissal will accompany this Memorandum and Order.
