ORDER OF DISMISSAL

Plaintiff, a prisoner at the San Francisco County Jail, has filed a pro se

civil rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 alleging that he is being attacked

on a daily basis by "the voice of God" or "similar technology" or "weapon." 

Plaintiff raised the same allegations in a prior prisoner complaint, which was

dismissed on April 27, 2010. See Rosberg v. San Francisco Sheriff's Dep't, No.

C 10-1676 CRB (PR) (N.D. Cal. Apr. 27, 2010) (order of dismissal). 

A prisoner complaint that merely repeats pending or previously litigated

claims may be considered abusive and dismissed under the authority of 28 U.S.C.

§ 1915A. Cf. Cato v. United States, 70 F.3d 1103, 1105 n.2 (9th Cir. 1995)

(citing Bailey v. Johnson, 846 F.2d 1019, 1021 (5th Cir. 1988)) (duplicative in

forma pauperis complaint may be considered abusive and dismissed under 28

U.S.C. § 1915). Because plaintiff raised and litigated the same allegations and
