IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

LITTLE ROCK DIVISION

GREGORY NASH PLAINTIFF

v. Case No. 4:15-CV-0300 KGB

ASHLEY, FLETCHER PROPERTY

MANAGEMENT, and BIG BROTHER

BIG SISTER DEFENDANTS

ORDER

Before the Court is plaintiff Gregory Nash’s motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis

(Dkt. No. 1). Mr. Nash has also filed what the Court construes as his complaint (Dkt. No. 2). For 

the following reasons, the Court dismisses without prejudice Mr. Nash’s complaint and denies as 

moot Mr. Nash’s motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis (Dkt. No. 1). 

Under 28 U.S.C. §1915(e)(2), “the court shall dismiss the [in forma pauperis] case at any 

time if the court determines that . . . the action . . . is frivolous or malicious; [or] fails to state a 

claim on which relief may be granted.” 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B). In this case, Mr. Nash’s 

complaint lists the named defendants above, states “$3 for a key,” and indicates his monthly 

income. Mr. Nash has failed to state a claim or otherwise indicate a basis in the law on which this 

Court may grant relief. Moreover, Mr. Nash’s complaint indicates no basis for federal court 

jurisdiction over this action. Therefore, upon a screening of Mr. Nash’s complaint pursuant to 28 

U.S.C. § 1915, and for the foregoing reasons, the Court dismisses without prejudice Mr. Nash’s 

complaint (Dkt. No. 2). Accordingly, the Court denies as moot Mr. Nash’s motion to proceed in 

forma pauperis (Dkt. No. 1). 

SO ORDERED this 2nd day of June, 2015.
