No. 4:15CV557 RWS

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Plaintiff has filed a civil suit and seeks leave to proceed in forma pauperis. The request is
granted. Under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e), the Court is required to dismiss a complaint filed in forma
pauperis if it is frivolous, malicious, or fails to state a claim upon which relief can be granted.
An action is frivolous if the facts alleged are “clearly baseless”; allegations are clearly baseless if
they are “fanciful,” “delusional,” or “fantastic.” Denton v. Hernandez, 504 U.S. 25, 32-33
(1992).
Allegations
Plaintiff alleges that he formed a “federation” with members of the United States
government to develop “special policy for the purposes of advancements of select fields of
science and cooperation between foreign governments and that plaintiff then developed this
federation.” Plaintiff says he was then usurped. Now, plaintiff seeks to be installed as the coleader along with the usurper.
Discussion
The allegations in the complaint are fantastic under Denton. As a result, this action is
dismissed without further proceedings.

Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff’s motion for leave to proceed in forma
pauperis [ECF No. 2] is GRANTED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that this action is DISMISSED without prejudice.
An Order of Dismissal will be filed separately.
Dated this 2nd day of April, 2015.
