were filed January 11, 2008.

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e), where a party seeks to proceed in forma pauperis,

the district court must dismiss the complaint if the court determines that the complaint is

frivolous or malicious, or that the party has failed to state a claim upon which relief can be

granted. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1915(e)(2)(B)(i), (ii).

Here, Curiel’s complaint falls within the category of pleadings identified in

§§ 1915(e)(2)(B)(i) and (ii). Curiel, an individual who has named a lending institution as a

defendant, alleges “all parties are U.S. Vessels and fit the legal definition of a U.S. Vessel,”

“[t]he cargo is shipped via U.S. Postal Service and all parties are subject to the Postal

Codes in this instant action,” and additional allegations of a similar nature. Curiel fails,

however, to allege any facts that could state a claim under either state or federal law. 

Further, and contrary to the title of Curiel’s pleading, Curiel fails to allege the existence of

an administrative decision, let alone a decision that a court has jurisdiction to review.

Accordingly, the instant complaint is hereby DISMISSED, pursuant to 28 U.S.C.

§ 1915(e)(2)(B), and plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis is hereby DENIED

as moot.

The Clerk shall close the file.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
