Philip Y. Kim, Plaintiff-appellant, v. Meridian Mortgage Corporation; Shapiro & Burson,defendants-appellees, 57 F.3d 1066 (4th Cir. 1995)

Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 57 F.3d 1066 (4th Cir. 1995) Submitted: May 2, 1995. Decided: June 14, 1995

Philip Y. Kim, Appellant Pro Se.

Garrett Douglas Green, Falls Church, VA, for Appellees.

Before MURNAGHAN, WILKINS, and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:


Philip Y. Kim appeals from the district court's order dismissing his case with prejudice pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b) (6). The most liberal reading of Kim's complaint, see Hospital Bldg. Co. v. Trustees of Rex Hosp., 425 U.S. 738, 746 (1976), reveals only conclusory, baseless allegations that Meridian Mortgage and Shapiro & Burson committed violations of law. Kim failed to allege injury, see Allen v. Wright, 468 U.S. 737, 751 (1984), and, despite warnings that the case may be dismissed, he failed to adequately explain or clarify his claims. We therefore affirm the dismissal of this case. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
