With respect to the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, this declaration is not a legally binding instrument under international law and does not create a private right of action. See, e.g., Singletary v. Internal Revenue Serv. N. Carolina, No. 5:17-cv-231-FL, 2017 WL 7736168, at *2 (E.D. N.C. Sept. 19, 2017), adopted, 2018 WL 1006451 (E.D. N.C. Jan. 30, 2018); Johenkins v. New Jersey, No. 5:19-cv-17-FL, 2019 WL 4309037, at *2 (E.D. N.C. Aug. 19, 2019), adopted, 2019 WL 4309005 (E.D. N.C. Sept. 11, 2019); Bey v. Colon, No. 2:19-cv-941-BHH-BM, 2019 WL 3557920, at *3 (D.S.C. July 10, 2019), adopted, 2019 WL 3547086 (D.S.C. Aug. 5, 2019). Thus, any such claims are likewise subject to summary dismissal.

“While an individual's right to represent himself or herself pro se in federal court is protected by statute; see 28 U.S.C. § 1654; the right to litigate one's claims without an attorney ‘does not create a coordinate right to litigate for others.'” Bey v. Colon, No. 2:19-cv-941-BHH-BM, 2019 WL 3557920, at *3-4 (D.S.C. July 10, 2019) (quoting Myers v. Loudon Co. Pub. Sch., 418 F.3d 395, 400 (4th Cir. 2005)), Report and Recommendation adopted by 2019 WL 3547086 (D.S.C. Aug. 5, 2019).
But they are criminal-law statutes; neither creates civil liability or provides a private right of action. United States v. Oguaju, 76 F. App'x 579, 581 (6th Cir. 2003) (§ 241 and § 242); Bey v. Colon, No. 2:19-cv-941-BHH-BM, 2019 WL 3557920, at *3 (D.S.C. July 10, 2019) (§ 242), report and recommendation adopted, 2019 WL 3547086 (D.S.C. Aug. 5, 2019); Wagner v. United States, 377 F. Supp. 2d 505, 510-11 (D.S.C. 2005) (§ 241). Thus, Plaintiff cannot state a claim under those statutes.
