DEROME MCELROY, Plaintiff, v. AGENCY, Defendant.
ORDER
BENJAMIN H. SETTLE, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
THIS MATTER is before the Court on its own motion, following its Order to Show Cause, Dkt. 11. The Court ordered pro se plaintiff Derome McElroy to show cause why the Court should not deny his application to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss his proposed complaint, Dkt. 1, as facially frivolous.
McElroy's response, Dkt. 12, asks the Court to “order an investigation into the case” to assist him in responding to the order to show cause. That is not the Court's role, and that request is DENIED. The case is facially frivolous. McElroy's application to proceed in forma pauperis is DENIED and the matter is DISMISSED with prejudice.
The Clerk shall enter a JUDGMENT and close the case.
