UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MARK C. BERGERON,

Plaintiff,

v.

KING MOHAMED V, and THE 

KINGDOM OF MOROCCO,

Defendants.

CIV S-06-037 GEB PAN PS

ORDER AND

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

-o0oOn January 23, 2006, this court denied plaintiff’s

application to proceed in forma pauperis with leave to file an

amended application, and dismissed plaintiff’s complaint for 

lack of subject matter jurisdiction with leave to file an amended

complaint.

On February 1, 2006, plaintiff filed a new in forma

pauperis application; however, this application, like the

previous one, fails to identify the amount of money plaintiff

holds in cash and in checkings and savings accounts other than

the designation “55.22.00.” 

On February 7, 2006, plaintiff filed a new complaint

again asserting that the jurisdiction of this court rests on 

28 U.S.C. § 1605(a)(1), (2) and (5). For the reasons set forth

in the court’s prior order, the facts of this case do not

authorize jurisdiction under any of these statutes. Nor does the

court foresee any possible basis for this court’s jurisdiction of

plaintiff’s action. The Honorable Gregory H. Hollows reached the

same conclusion October 20, 2005, in Bergeron v. King Mohamed VI,

et al., CIV S-05-1102 FCD GGH PS.

Accordingly, I recommend that plaintiff’s application to

proceed in forma pauperis be denied, and plaintiff’s complaint 

dismissed with prejudice.

Plaintiff further requests the court “to personally

contact the U.S. Attorneys Office and make an appointment for the

plaintiff to swear out a criminal indictment on all 19 causes of

action against and for the named defendants,” which can be

attached to a letter rogatory, forwarded to the U.S. State

Department for authentication and served upon the Kingdom of

Morocco. Plaintiff’s request is denied.

These findings and recommendations are submitted to the

Honorable Garland E. Burrell, Jr., the United States District

Judge assigned to this case. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l). Written

objections may be filed within ten days after being served with

these findings and recommendations. The document should be

Recommendations.” The failure to file objections within the

specified time may waive the right to appeal the District Court’s
