On August 24, 2017, defendant moved to dismiss [D .E. 16] plaintiffs pro se complaint and
filed a memorandum in support [D.E. 17]. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(1), (6). On September 11,
2017, plaintiff responded in opposition [D.E. 20].
This court lacks subject-matter jurisdiction over plaintiffs claim under the Federal Tort
Claims Act. See [D.E. 17] 6-8. Moreover, to the extent plaintiff seeks relief under 42 U.S.C. ยง 405,
plaintiff has failed to exhaust his administrative remedies. See id. at 8-12. Thus, the court
GRANTS defendants' motion to dismiss [D.E. 16] and DISMISSES the complaint without
prejudice.
SO ORDERED. This...!!._ day of October 2017.
