2018-12-0513MINUTE entry before the Honorable Gary Feinerman:Motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis 11 is denied.

First, Plaintiff's response to Question 2.B does not estimate his monthly wages from Uber. Second, Plaintiff's response to Question 4.F states that he received less than $200 in public assistance over the past twelve months, yet his affidavit of indigency (Dkt. 12 at 2) avers that he receives "General Assistance, SNAP benefits for food, [and] MIAP a County based program that pays for inpatient hospital services." If Plaintiff wishes to proceed with this suit, he must either file a proper in forma pauperis application or pay the $400.00 filing fee by 1/4/2019. Motion hearing set for 12/10/2018 12 is stricken. Status hearing set for 12/17/2018 10 is stricken and re-set for 1/17/2019 at 9:00 a.m. Mailed notice. (jlj, ) (Entered: 12/05/2018)

2018-12-2017NOTICE of Correction regarding 16 (jjr, ) (Entered: 12/20/2018)
2018-12-2018MINUTE entry before the Honorable Gary Feinerman: Plaintiff's in forma pauperis application 14 is granted. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii), the complaint 1 is dismissed without prejudice because it does not state a discernible federal claim against any of the defendants and because the court would relinquish supplemental jurisdiction over the state law claims (there is no diversity of citizenship) pursuant to 28 USC 1367(c)(3) given the stage of the case. Plaintiff has until 1/17/2019 to submit an amended complaint. If Plaintiff does so, the amended complaint must describe precisely what each defendant is alleged to have done to Plaintiff and how Plaintiff was injured. Failure to comply will result in the dismissal with prejudice of this suit. The 1/17/2019 status hearing 13 is stricken and re-set to 2/13/2019 at 9:15 a.m. Mailed notice. (jjr, ) (Entered: 12/20/2018)

2019-02-1121MINUTE entry before the Honorable Gary Feinerman: Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1915(e)(2)(B), the amended complaint 19 is dismissed. The federal claims arising from conduct occurring on or before 11/2/2016 are dismissed with prejudice on statute of limitations grounds, as the limitations period for Plaintiff's federal claims, all arising under 42 U.S.C. 1983, is two years. The federal claims arising from conduct occurring after 11/2/2016, which all pertain to Plaintiff's complaints regarding the conduct of litigation in state court or in federal bankruptcy court, are dismissed without prejudice to Plaintiff pursuing those claims in state court and federal bankruptcy court and without prejudice to Plaintiff pursuing any appeals from those proceedings. The court relinquishes supplemental jurisdiction over Plaintiff's state law claims pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1367(c)(3). Given the opportunity 18 Plaintiff was afforded to replead, and given the nature of his claims and the bases for the dismissals, Plaintiff will not be given a further opportunity to replead.
