UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MEHRAN ABAZARY OF THE [MEHRAN:

Plaintiffs,

CASE NO. 12-CV-720 JLS (BLM)

(ECF No. 1)

vs.

ANDERSEN, HILBERT & PARKER;

CORINNA S. ARBITER; DEUTSCHE

BANK; MORTGAGE-PASS THROUGHCERTIFICATE-SERIES-2007-AR7,

Defendants.

On March 26, 2012, Plaintiffs “Mehran Abazary of the [Mehran: Afazary], Alvin-Ruis:

Pate’s, Atef: Afkarian, and David-Wynn: Miller,” proceeding pro se, filed the Complaint in this

action against various Defendants. (Compl., ECF No. 1.) For the reasons stated below, the Court

sua sponte dismisses Plaintiffs’ Complaint for failure to comply with the requirements of Rule 8,

and grants Plaintiffs leave to amend.

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 8(a) provides: “A pleading that states a claim for relief

must contain . . . a short and plain statement of the claim showing that the pleader is entitled to

relief.” Although Rule 8 “does not require ‘detailed factual allegations,’ . . . it [does] demand[]

more than an unadorned, the-defendant-unlawfully-harmed-me accusation.” Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556

U.S. 662, 129 S. Ct. 1937, 1949 (2009) (quoting Bell Atl. Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 555

(2007)). In other words, “a plaintiff’s obligation to provide the ‘grounds’ of his ‘entitle[ment] to

relief’ requires more than labels and conclusions, and a formulaic recitation of the elements of a

cause of action will not do.” Twombly, 550 U.S. at 555 (citing Papasan v. Allain, 478 U.S. 265,

286 (1986)). Generally, courts must broadly construe pleadings filed by pro se litigants, affording

pro se plaintiffs any benefit of the doubt. See Erickson v. Pardus, 551 U.S. 89, 94 (2007);

Thompson v. Davis, 295 F.3d 890, 895 (9th Cir. 2002). However, even when receiving liberal

construction, pro se litigants must still comply with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure,

including Rule 8. See King v. Atiyeh, 790 F.2d 1362, 1364 (9th Cir. 1986). 

The Court finds the Complaint does not sufficiently show how Plaintiffs are entitled to

relief. As an illustration of the type of nonsensical and undecipherable text contained in the

Complaint, the first “cause” listed reads as follows:

~1 FOR THE C. -S. -S. -C. -P. -S. -G. -CORRECTIONS OF THESE

FRAUDULENT-PARSE-SYNTAX-GRAMMAR-COMMUNICATION-COURTDOCUMENTS ARE WITH THE FRAUDULENT-PARSE-SYNTAXGRAMMAR-DAMAGE-CLAIMS OF THE VASSALEE’S-WRONG-WORDCOMMUNICATION-EVIDENCE-HEREIN-BONDED WITH THE THREETIMES-EQUITY-DAMAGES OF THE $75,000.00-PER-HOUR WITH THE

CLAYTON-ANTITRUST-ACT (1914) OF THE FREEDON-LOSS WITH THE

FRAUDULENT-PARSE_SYNTAX-GRAMMAR-FALSE-ARREST BY THE

CLAIMANTS’-FRAUDULENT-PARSE-SYNTAX-GRAMMAR-EVIDENCE.

(Compl. 3) (emphasis in original). Plaintiffs’ Complaint goes on in this manner for a total of

twelve pages. The civil cover sheet attached to the Complaint lists 42 U.S.C. § 19861

, 15 U.S.C. §

16922

, and 31 U.S.C. § 37293 as federal statutes under which Plaintiffs are filing, also stating

“QUO-WARRANTO COMPLAINT FRAUDULENT SYNTAX GRAMMAR” as the “Nature of

Suit.” (Civil Cover Sheet, ECF No. 1 at 13.) However, it is impossible to decipher any such

causes of action, or any other cognizable legal theories, from the text of Plaintiffs’ Complaint

1

 42 U.S.C. § 1986 provides a cause of action for neglecting to prevent interference with civil

rights. 

2

 15 U.S.C. § 1692 contains Congressional findings and declaration of purpose with regard to

the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. 

3

 31 U.S.C. § 3729 provides for liability for certain acts under the False Claims Act.

itself. The attached documents, which appear to be copies of several filings in a proceeding in

superior court, are similarly unhelpful in ascertaining Plaintiffs’ claims or bases for this action in

federal court. (See Attachments to Compl., ECF No. 1-1.) These documents also contain

substantial handwritten text, and handwritten numbers appear above each typed word, apparently

as part of some kind of code. Stamped at the bottom of each page is what appears to be the key to

that code: “:Syntax-word-key-meaning: 1=Adverb, 2=Verb, 3= Adjective, 4=Pronoun; 8=Pasttime, 9=Future-time, 9=Conjunction, NC=No-Contract.” Again, the meaning or relevance of this

code is not explained. 

This is not the first such Complaint filed by Plaintiff Miller.4 In nearly identical

circumstances, judges in this district have dismissed Plaintiff’s incomprehensible and

unintelligible complaints for failure to assert “a short and plain statement of the claim showing that

the pleader is entitled to relief” under Fed. R. Civ. P. 8(a)(2). See, e.g., Miller v. Michael Burnett

& Matthews, LLP, No. 11cv2590 WQH (WVG), 2012 WL 909462 at *2 (S.D. Cal. Order Mar. 15,

2012) (“Dismissal is appropriate because the indecipherable allegations of the Complaint lack any

cognizable legal theory or sufficient facts to support a cognizable legal theory.”); Abraham-D.

Tomas v. AEGIS Mortgage Co., No. 10cv2286 BEN (BLM) (S.D. Cal. Orders Nov. 18, 2010 and

Jan. 28, 2011) (sua sponte dismissing case without prejudice). Here, the Court similarly finds

dismissal proper, where the Court cannot discern from the Complaint any facts or allegations

sufficient to support a cognizable legal theory upon which relief could be granted. Instead, the

Complaint is “filled with nonsensical, erratically-formatted lines of text that fail to allege any

facts, let alone a coherent legal claim.” Abraham-D. Tomas, No. 10cv2286 BEN (BLM) (S.D.

Cal. Order Jan. 27, 2011). 

Dismissal of this Complaint, especially without prejudice, is warranted under a variety of 

rules of civil procedure. See Amsterdam v. Office of Hawaiian Affairs, 2011 U.S. Dist. LEXIS

91639 at *8-9 (D. Haw., Aug. 16, 2011) (citing Franklin v. Murphy, 745 F.2d 1221, 1227 n.6 (9th

4

 Indeed, another unintelligible Complaint was recently filed by Plaintiff Miller, and,

simultaneously with this Order, the Court issues a similar Order sua sponte dismissing that Complaint

on the same grounds. See :Mehran: Abzary & Sohelia: Ferdowski v. One West Bank, No. 12cv562

JLS (POR) (S.D. Cal. filed March 6, 2012).

Cir. 1984)) (explaining that a paid complaint that is “obviously frivolous” may be dismissed sua

sponte for numerous grounds, including Rule 12(b)(6), Rule 12(b)(1), and Rule 8 itself); Nasious

v. Two Unknown B.I.C.E. Agents, 492 F.3d 1158, 1162 (10th Cir. 2007) (stating that dismissing a

case under Rule 41(b) for failure to comply with Rule 8 allows the plaintiff “another go at

trimming the verbiage; accordingly, a district court may, without abusing its discretion, enter such

an order without attention to any particular proceedings.”); Apple v. Glenn, 183 F.3d 477, 479 (6th

Cir. 1999) (noting that district courts may sua sponte dismiss completely implausible paid

complaints under Rule 12(b)(6) for failure to state a claim so long as the dismissal is without

prejudice or the plaintiff is given notice and an opportunity to respond, or under Rule 12(b)(1) for

lack of subject matter jurisdiction, with or without prejudice). 

Accordingly, this action is DISMISSED without prejudice. Through this Order of

dismissal, Plaintiffs have notice of the Complaint’s deficiencies and an opportunity to respond by

filing an Amended Complaint.5

 If Plaintiffs wish, they may file an Amended Complaint that

adheres to the pleading requirements of Rule 8 within 30 days of the filing date of this Order. Any

such Amended Complaint must set forth a clear statement of Plaintiffs’ claims in order to give

Defendants a fair opportunity to respond and to allow the Court to perform its responsibilities in

managing this action. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

 Plaintiff Miller may also wish to remind himself of the instructions contained in Judge

Benitez’ Order in an above-mentioned case also filed by Miller, Abraham-D. Tomas, No. 10cv2286

BEN (BLM) (S.D. Cal. Order Jan. 27, 2011), which sets forth in detail Rule 8's pleading requirements

and thoroughly explains how the unintelligible amended pleadings in that case, which are quite similar

in substance and form to the instant Complaint, still failed to comply with these requirements.
