IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS 

NORTHERN DIVISION 

RAY ADAMS PLAINTIFF 

v. No. 3:20-cv-39-DPM 

U.S.A. DEFENDANT 

ORDER 

1. The Court has been delayed by the press of other business in 

addressing Adams' s motion to proceed in forma pauperis and screening 

his complaint. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2). His motion, NQ 1, is granted. He 

can't afford the filing fee. 

2. On screening, the Court does not understand his complaint. 

He seeks relief against the United States because "Entities & Powers 

were unreasonably divided & used against original Houses, clans, and 

affiliations." NQ 2 at 4. This is a conclusion. The law requires particular 

facts that support a plausible claim for relief. Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 

556 U.S. 662, 677-78 (2009). The Court will therefore dismiss his 

complaint without prejudice for failure to state a claim. If Adams 

wants to file an amended complaint with particulars about who 

allegedly violated his rights, when it occurred, and how, he may do so 

by 31 March 2020.
