KAMAL KARNA ROY, 

Plaintiff, 

v. Case No. 09-11905 

Honorable Patrick J. Duggan 

UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT, et aI., 

Defendants. 

----------_----:/ 

OPINION AND ORDER 

At a session of said Court, held in the U.S.
 

District Courthouse, Eastern District
 

of Michigan, on May 21, 2009.
 

PRESENT: THE HONORABLE PATRICK J. DUGGAN 

U.S. DISTRICT COURT JUDGE 

Plaintiff Kamal Kama Roy, a/k/a Jungle Democracy, filed this pro se action on 

May 19,2009. Plaintiff has submitted an application to proceed in forma pauperis, which 

this Court grants. The Court, however, dismisses his action sua sponte. 

In a case where the plaintiff is permitted to proceed in forma pauperis, 28 U.S.C. 

§ 1915(e)(2) requires the court to dismiss the action if: "(A) the allegation of poverty is 

untrue; or (B) the action ... - (i) is frivolous or malicious; (ii) fails to state a claim on 

which relief may be granted; or (iii) seeks monetary relief against a defendant who is 

immune from such relief." An action is frivolous if it "lacks an arguable basis either in 

law or in fact." Neitzke v. Williams, 490 U.S. 319, 325,109 S. Ct. 1827, 1831-32 (1989). 

2:09-cv-11905-PJD-PJK Doc # 3 Filed 05/21/09 Pg 1 of 7 Pg ID 46
A malicious complaint is one that "duplicates allegations of another pending federal 

lawsuit by the same plaintiff." Roy v. United States, No. 06-685-SLR, 2007 WL 

1109296, at *2 (D. Del. April 11,2007) (citing Pittman v. Moore, 908 F.2d 994,995 (5th 

Cir. 1993». This Court finds that Plaintiffs pending lawsuit is both frivolous and 

malicious. 

With regard to frivolousness, Plaintiffs submission is comprised of multiple pages 

containing illegible hand-written notations scrawled across them. Even where the Court 

is able to read Plaintiff s ramblings, it is unable able to identify a comprehensible 

sentence, let alone a "(1) a short and plain statement ofthe grounds upon which the 

court's jurisdiction depends ..." or "(2) a short and plain statement of the claim showing 

that the pleader is entitled to relief," as required under Rule 8 of the Federal Rules of 

Civil Procedure. The Court is not even certain who Plaintiff intends to sue in this case, as 

his submission does not contain a traditional caption. The Court has only discerned that 

he is suing the United States because his application to proceed in forma pauperis lists 

"USA Govt et al." 

With respect to maliciousness, Plaintiffhas filed numerous actions in jurisdictions 

throughout this country, similar to the action now pending. One district court judge 

identified more than fifteen cases filed by Plaintiff as of April 2007. See Roy v. United 

States, No. 06-685-SLR, 2007 WL 1109296, at *1 (D. Del. April 11, 2007). Westlawand

reveal at least ninety (90) additional cases filed by Plaintiff as oftoday's date. See 

Attachment A. Many ofthese previous lawsuits have been dismissed as frivolous by the 

courts in which they were filed. 1 Courts in many jurisdictions have either warned Plaintiff 

that future similar filings will result in an injunction barring him from filing any 

additional actions in forma pauperis or denied him the right to file any additional actions 

without leave from the court outright. 

"A district court has the authority to issue an injunctive order to prevent prolific 

and vexatious litigants from filing pleadings without first meeting pre-filing restrictions." 

Stewart v. Fleet Fin., No. 99-2282, 2000 WL 1176881, at *2 (6th Cir. Aug. 10,2000) 

(citing Feathers v. Chevron US.A., 141 F.3d 264,269 (6th Cir. 1998». In light of 

Plaintiffs history of initiating repetitive and frivolous lawsuits and to avoid clogging the 

dockets in this jurisdiction with such filings, this Court enjoins Plaintiff from filing 

similar complaints in this district without leave of court. This means that, unless leave of 

court is granted, Plaintiff is barred from filing any complaint in this jurisdiction that is 

illegible or that fails to plainly identify the named defendants, the claims alleged, facts 

supporting those claims, and the relief requested. 

Accordingly, 

IT IS ORDERED, that Plaintiffs application to proceed in forma pauperis is 

lOne court permanently enjoined Plaintiff from filing any subsequent cases after it 

found sewing needles stuck into two pages of his complaint. Roy v. CBS, Inc., No. 07­

206-SLR (D. Del. May 4, 2007).

GRANTED; 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, that Plaintiffs complaint is DISMISSED WITH 

PREJUDICE pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2); 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, that Plaintiff is enjoined from filing similar 

complaints in this district unless he seeks and obtains leave of court.
