Aden v. Republic of Israel Doc. 3 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF TENNESSEE AT GREENEVILLE MOUSEN ADEN, KING OF ISRAEL, Plaintiff, v. REPUBLIC OF ISRAEL, Defendant. ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) No. 3:16-CV-099-JRG-CCS MEMORANDUM OPINION The Court is in receipt of a document titled a “Notice of Declaration of the Sovereign Monarchy,” which the Court liberally construes as a pro se prisoner's civil rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, and an application to proceed in forma pauperis. Section 1915(g) of the Prison Litigation Reform Act of 1996 (PLRA) provides as follows: In no event shall a prisoner bring a civil action [in forma pauperis] . . . if the prisoner has, on 3 or more prior occasions, while incarcerated or detained in any facility, brought an action . . . that was dismissed on the grounds that it is frivolous, malicious, or fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, unless the prisoner is under imminent danger of serious physical injury.” 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). While incarcerated, Plaintiff has filed at least three prior civil actions that have been dismissed for failure to state a claim. See Aden v. Future the Rapper, Civil Action No. 3:16-CV067 (E.D. Tenn. Feb. 18, 2016) (Docs. 4 and 5, memorandum and order dismissing case for failure to state claim upon which relief may be granted); Prince Jael Nurro, Prince of Somalia, Gelib, a/k/a Mousen Aden, Civil Action No. 3:15-CV-107 (M.D. Tenn. Feb. 23, 2015) (Doc. 6, order dismissing case as frivolous and for failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted); Aden v. Accord, et. al, Civil Action No. 3:14-CV-2397 (M.D. Tenn. Jan. 9, 2015) Dockets.Justia.com (Docs. 3 and 4, memorandum opinion and order dismissing case for failure to state claim upon which relief may be granted). Plaintiff’s complaint consists of what appear to be handwritten scripture quotes and Plaintiff’s commentary thereon, none of which could be construed to establish any imminent danger to Plaintiff. Thus, in order to file this action, Plaintiff must prepay the entire $400.00 filing fee. Plaintiff’s motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis [Doc. 1] will be DENIED. Plaintiff's complaint shall be DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE to Plaintiff filing a feepaid § 1983 complaint, pursuant to the three-strike rule of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). ENTER: s/J.
