#### LARRY EDWARD HARMON VS. REGIONAL JAIL AND CORRECTIONAL *268FACILITY AUTHORITY

(CC-08-0418)

Claimant appeared *pro se.*

Ronald R. Brown, Assistant Attorney General, for respondent.

PER CURIAM:

This claim was submitted for decision based upon the allegations in the Notice of Claim and respondent's Answer.

Claimant, a former inmate at the Southern Regional Jail, seeks $426.96 for items of personal property that were entrusted to respondent. When claimant was preparing to leave the jail on July 31, 2008, his anide boots, shorts, shirt, hat, wallet, identification, G.E.D. card, Walmart gift card, Zippo lighter, socks, and boxers were missing.

In its Answer, respondent admits the validity of the claim and that the amount is fair and reasonable. The Court is aware that respondent does not have a fiscal method for paying claims of this nature; therefore, the claim has been submitted to this Court for determination.

This Court has taken the position in prior claims that if a bailment situation has been created, respondent is responsible for property of an inmate which is taken from that inmate, remains in its custody, and is not produced for return to the inmate.

Accordingly, the Court makes an award to the claimant herein in the amount of $426.96.

Award of $426.96.

To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to simplify individual income 

tax rates. 

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 

JUNE 18, 2015 

Mr. WILLIAMS introduced the following bill; which was referred to the 

Committee on Ways and Means 

A BILL 

To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to simplify

v. ) Civil Action No. 23-0799 (UNA)

)

GREYHOUND BUS LINES, INC., )

)

Defendant. )

MEMORANDUM OPINION

This matter is before the Court on review of this pro se plaintiff’s application to proceed 

in forma pauperis and her civil complaint. 

The Court has reviewed the plaintiff’s complaint, keeping in mind that complaints filed 

by pro se litigants are held to less stringent standards than are applied to formal pleadings drafted 

by lawyers. See Haines v. Kerner, 404 U.S. 519, 520 (1972). Even pro se litigants must comply 

with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Jarrell v. Tisch, 656 F. Supp. 237, 239 (D.D.C. 

1987). Rule 8(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure requires that a complaint contain a 

short and plain statement of the grounds upon which the Court’s jurisdiction depends, a short and 

plain statement of the claim showing that the pleader is entitled to relief, and a demand for 

judgment for the relief the pleader seeks. Fed. R. Civ. P. 8(a). The purpose of the minimum 

standard of Rule 8 is to give fair notice to the defendants of the claim being asserted, sufficient to 

prepare a responsive answer, to prepare an adequate defense and to determine whether the 

doctrine of res judicata applies. Brown v. Califano, 75 F.R.D. 497, 498 (D.D.C. 1977). 

In conclusory fashion, plaintiff alleges she “was discriminated against, stalked, and 

[subjected to] hate crime while riding Greyhound buses and in Greyhound terminals.” Compl. at 
2

1. For example, plaintiff alleges she “was almost attacked once” and was exposed to “persons 

playing the witchcraft/voodoo game[,]” id., Ex. (ECF No. 1-1) at 2, while travelling on 

unspecified dates through multiple states, see id., Ex. at 3. She also alleges that she was 

overcharged. See id. Plaintiff demands “restitution for and/or pain and suffering in the amount 

of 17 trillion dollars[.]” Compl. at 1.

As drafted, the complaint fails to meet the minimal pleading standard set forth in Rule 8. 

The complaint does not state a basis for this Court’s jurisdiction and a cogent statement of an 

actual legal claim. So few facts are alleged that no defendant reasonably could be expected to 

prepare a proper response to the complaint. 

The Court will grant the plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis (ECF No. 2)

and will dismiss the complaint and this civil action without prejudice. An Order consistent with 

this Memorandum Opinion is issued separately.

David Moody, Ph.D., Manager 

Carlsbad Field Office 

Department of Energy 

P.O. Box 3090 

Carlsbad, NM 88221 

Dear Dr. Moody: 

We received your letter dated March 28, 2007, requesting the Environmental Protection 

Agency's (EPA's) concurrence on the revised draft recertification letter you plan to issue to the 

Central Characterization Project (CCP) at the Savannah River Site (SRS). Your request is in 

accordance with the Carlsbad Field Office (CBFO) procedures that are intended to ensure that 

the Department of Energy's (DOE) Waste Isolafion Pilot Plant (WIPP) site certifications 

correlate appropriately with EPA approvals for waste characterization activities at DOE 

transuranic (TRU) waste generator sites. 

The scope of the DOE audit conducted in October 2006 (CBFO Audit A-07-01 aud A-07- 

02) covered characterization activities for contact-handled (CH), retrievably-stored and newlygenerated soilslgravel (S4000), and debris waste (S5000). EPA independently conducted a 

baseline inspection of SRS CCP's TRU waste characterization program (EPA-SRS-CCP-10.05- 

08) for compliance with EPA regulations. 

On July 10, 2006, EPA issued a final inspection report and a letter approving the SRS 

CCP waste characterization program (EPA Air pocket No. A-98-49, Item II-A4-64). 

Subsequent to that baseline approval, EPA has received and reviewed tiering reports covering the 

waste characterization program implemented by CCP at SRS and have found all cbanges made to 

be acceptable. 

EPA concurs that the waste characterization equipment, procedures and waste streams 

encompassed in DOE's draft recertifieation letter comport with all of EPA's existing approvals 

for contact-handled waste at SRS-CCP.

* Judge Motz did not participate in consideration of this case. The opinion is filed by a quorum of the panel pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 46(d) (1994). UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 98-7825

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, versus GERALD PHILLIPS, Defendant - Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Baltimore. J. Frederick Motz, Chief District Judge; Herbert N. Maletz, Senior Judge, sitting by designation. (CR-93- 455-JFM, CA-97-2019-HNM) Submitted: May 13, 1999 Decided: May 18, 1999 Before WIDENER and MOTZ, * Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge. Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Gerald Phillips, Appellant Pro Se. Lynne Ann Battaglia, United States Attorney, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee.2 Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Gerald Phillips seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994 & Supp. 1998). We have reviewed the record and the district court’sopinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. See United States v. Phillips, Nos. CR-93- 455-JFM; CA-97-2019-HNM (D. Md. Oct. 22, 1998). Much of Phillips’ appeal is based on a “traverse” allegedly filed in district court. However, the certified district court record reveals that this document was never filed, and thus, the district court did not err in failing to consider it. See 4th Cir. R. 10(b) (parties are responsible for insuring that all relevant documents have been included in the record). We deny Philips’ motion for appointment of counsel and dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
