IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

PINE BLUFF DIVISION

RAKEBIA QUJUAN DANIELS,

ADC #754266 PLAINTIFF

V. 5:14CV00440 SWW/JTR

 

ARKANSAS DEPARTMENT OF 

COMMUNITY CORRECTION, et al. DEFENDANTS

ORDER

The Court has reviewed the Proposed Findings and Recommended Disposition

submitted by United States Magistrate Judge J. Thomas Ray and the filed objections. 

After carefully considering these documents and making a de novo review of the

record in this case, the Court concludes that the Proposed Findings and Recommended

Disposition should be, and hereby are, approved and adopted in their entirety as this

Court's findings in all respects. Plaintiff’s assertion that she was in poor health and

lacked the financial ability to bring a lawsuit does not state a basis for the tolling of

the statute of limitations. 

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that:

1. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A, this case is DISMISSED WITH

PREJUDICE as being frivolous. 

Case 5:14-cv-00440-SWW Document 9 Filed 03/19/15 Page 1 of 2
2. Dismissal constitutes a “STRIKE,” as defined by 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g).1

3. It is CERTIFIED, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3), that an in forma

pauperis appeal from this Order would not be taken in good faith.

Dated this 19th day of March, 2015.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

1

In response to plaintiff’s inquiries contained in her objection, the Court explains that 28 U.S.C. §

1915(g), which is commonly called the “three strikes” provision, provides that a prisoner may not file

another civil action or appeal in forma pauperis if she has had three previous actions dismissed while

incarcerated on the grounds that they were frivolous, malicious, or for failed to state a claim, unless the

prisoner is under imminent danger of serious physical injury. Because the Court determines that

plaintiff’s claim was frivolous, it dismisses the complaint without serving the defendants and considers

this action as a “strike,” as in “three strikes and you’re out.”
