ORDER
Plaintiff Mardoche Olivier, a resident of Clarksville, Tennessee, brings this pro se action
against the United States Government, alleging violations of the Plaintiff’s civil rights. (Docket No.
1).
The Plaintiff also has submitted an application to proceed in forma pauperis. (Docket No.
2). A review of the application shows that the Plaintiff has insufficient financial resources to pay
the filing fee in this action. Therefore, the Plaintiff’s application is GRANTED, and the Clerk shall
file the complaint in forma pauperis. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a). However, process shall NOT issue.
Because the Plaintiff is proceeding as a pauper in this action, the Court must conduct an
initial review of the complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) and dismiss it or any portion of it
that is frivolous or malicious, fails to state a claim for which relief may be granted, or seeks
monetary relief from a defendant who is immune from such relief.
For the reasons explained in the Memorandum entered contemporaneously herewith, the
Court finds that the complaint fails to state claims upon which relief can be granted. 28 U.S.C. §
1915(e)(2). The Plaintiff’s claims are hereby DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
1
Because an appeal would NOT be taken in good faith, the Plaintiff is NOT certified to
appeal the judgment of the Court in forma pauperis. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3).
This Order constitutes final judgment in this action.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Aleta A. Trauger
United States District Judge
