In this matter plaintiff Istvan Ruzsa, representing himself, requests damages of $2,000,000 from the federal government. While Mr. Ruzsa’s papers are difficult to understand, it appears he is complaining about past reductions in his social security benefits. The government has moved to dismiss the case for lack of subjectmatter jurisdiction under Rule 12(b)(1) of the Rules of the United States Court of Federal Claims (RCFC). For the reasons below, the motion to dismiss this case is GRANTED. I. BACKGROUND The complaint filed by Mr. Rusza on December 9, 2019, is rather cryptic, and was accompanied by an exhibit consisting of 176 pages of medical and financial records and documents regarding other proceedings. See Compl., ECF No. 1 at 1–5; Ex. 1 to Compl., ECF No. 1-1, at 1–176. To the extent his allegations can be discerned, these are, of course, taken as true for purposes of the motion to dismiss this case. See Airport Rd. Assocs., Ltd. v. United States, 866 F.3d 1346, 1351 (Fed. Cir. 2017). Plaintiff recounts that he is an immigrant from Hungary who suffered numerous and severe injuries while working in Connecticut for a company he calls Dockets.Justia.com
