the complaint is frivolous, malicious, fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, or seeks

monetary damages from a defendant who is immune from such relief. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(i)-

dismiss a case prior to service of process if the court determines that the action is subject to dismissal

under the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(i),(ii) or (iii).
