Hill v. Nashville et al

Filing 4

ORDER: The application to proceed in forma pauperis is GRANTED. Plaintiff's claims are so attenuated and unsubstantial as to be absolutely devoid of merit. They are an excellent example of the type of "fantastic and delusional scenario" ; that the Supreme Court has recognized to be frivolous within the meaning of 28 U.S.C. §1915(e)(2). A district court possesses the authority to dismiss frivolous actions. Accordingly, this action is hereby DISMISSED. Because this action has b een found to be frivolous, an appeal of this order and the judgment rendered herein would not be taken in good faith. Therefore, Plaintiff is NOT certified to pursue an appeal of this judgment in forma pauperis. It is so ORDERED. This is the Final Order in this action. Signed by District Judge William J. Haynes, Jr on 10/16/11. (xc:Pro se party by regular and certified mail.)(tmw)
