The third page of Plaintiff’s Complaint appears to be a personal letter by Plaintiff to “Mr. former president Donald Trump.” Id. at 3.

Id. Among Plaintiff’s allegations are that “big worldwide corporation corrupt system” “give[s] mental medication [that] isn't needed to American people and they forced American people take 3 times a day,” “injected extremely powerful to control all American people,” “give[s] pain killer medication too much and too long for American people.” Id. Case 8:22-cv-02030-DOC-ADS Document 8 Filed 12/13/22 Page 2 of 2 Page ID #:70 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT CENTRAL DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL MINUTES – GENERAL SA 22-cv-02030-DOC-ADS Date: December 13, 2022 Page 2 To the extent the Court can discern, Plaintiff’s claims are based on fanciful factual allegations and lack any legal basis. Neitzke v. Williams, 490 U.S. 319, 327 – 28 5 (1989) (a court may dismiss a complaint as frivolous if it is "based on an indisputably meritless legal theory" or a "clearly baseless" or "fantastic or delusional" factual scenario); see also McKeever v. Block, 932 F.2d 795, 798 (9th Cir. 1991) (a “complaint could properly be dismissed sua sponte and before the filing of responsive pleadings only if it were frivolous”). Because Plaintiff’s allegations are legally baseless and factually frivolous, the Court DISMISSES Plaintiff’s Complaint WITHOUT PREJUDICE. MINUTES FORM 11 Initials of Deputy Clerk: kdu CIVIL-GEN
