Loveday v. Seals et al

Filing 6

JUDGMENT ORDER, Even liberally construing the complaint in favor of Plaintiff, it fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted under § 1983. Accordingly, this action is DISMISSED pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ ; 1915(e)(2)(B) and 1915(A). Because the Court CERTIFIED in the memorandum opinion that any appeal from this order would not be taken in good faith, should Plaintiff file a notice of appeal, he is DENIED leave to appeal in forma pauperis. Signed by District Judge J.Ronnie Greer on 5/5/20. (c/m)(ADA)
