MICAH ANGEL PLAINTIFF v. CITY OF JONESBORO CODE ENFORCEMENT DEFENDANT


ORDER

BILLY ROY WILSON UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

A district court has the authority to dismiss a case sua sponte for failure to state a claim.Plaintiff asserts that Defendant “tows illegal immigrant vehicles that are parked for maintenance in their yards” but does not “write hoarding tickets” for people who clutter their yards with other things.

See Smith v. Boyd, 945 F.2d 1041 (8th Cir. 1991).

Doc. No. 2.

Because Plaintiff's complaint is nonsensical, frivolous, and states no cause of action against Defendants for which relief may be granted, this case is DISMISSED. The motion to proceed in forma pauperis (Doc. No. 1) is MOOT.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
