IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 14-41163

Summary Calendar

COURTLAND DEWAYNE LINDSAY,

Plaintiff-Appellant

v.

MICHEAL KEITH DOLLAHITE,

Defendant-Appellee

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Eastern District of Texas

USDC No. 6:14-CV-667

Before GRAVES, HIGGINSON, and COSTA, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

The district court dismissed Courtland Dewayne Lindsay’s amended 

complaint for failure to provide a short and plain statement either of the 

grounds for federal jurisdiction or of his claims for relief. See FED. R. CIV.

P. 8(a). Lindsay’s largely unintelligible brief on appeal fails to cure these 

deficiencies. Accordingly, his motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis is 

DENIED, and his appeal is DISMISSED as frivolous pursuant to Fifth Circuit 

 

* Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not 

be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH 

CIR. R. 47.5.4.

will result in the imposition of sanctions, including dismissal, monetary 

sanctions, and restrictions on his ability to file pleadings in this court or any 

court subject to this court’s jurisdiction.
