ROMEO C. ALLEN, Plaintiff, v. LEWIS COUNTY DISTRICT COURT, Defendant.
ORDER
BENJAMIN H. SETTLE, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
THIS MATTER is before the Court on Magistrate Judge Grady J. Leupold's Report and Recommendation (R&R), Dkt. 4, following his 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) screening of pro se plaintiff Allen's application to proceed in forma pauperis, supported by his proposed complaint, Dkt. 1.
The R&R recommends denying Allen's application and dismissing the case without prejudice, as it is facially frivolous and fails to state a plausible claim. Id at 2.
Allen has not objected. The R&R is ADOPTED. Allen's application to proceed in forma pauperis is DENIED without prejudice to apply to the Ninth Circuit for such status in the event of an appeal. The case is DISMISSED without prejudice.
The Clerk shall enter a JUDGMENT and close the case.
