IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DIVISION OF ARKANSAS

WESTERN DIVISION

JHAKOBY JENNINGS PLAINTIFF

VS. 4:16-CV-00180-BRW

RELIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY DEFENDANT

ORDER

A district court has the authority to dismiss a case sua sponte for failure to state a claim.1

Plaintiff’s complaint, in its entirety, reads:

I have been paying my insurance and this woman Miss Terry been taking care of herself

with my money. And I am filing against Reliable Life Insurance Company.2

Because Plaintiff’s complaint is nonsensical and fails to state a cause of action against Defendant for

which relief may be granted, this case is DISMISSED. Plaintiff’s motion for leave to proceed in forma

pauperis (Doc. No. 1) is DENIED as MOOT.

 IT IS SO ORDERED this 5th day of April, 2016.
