The opinion
IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF HAWAI‘I
CARMELA LYNN JACKSON, Case No. 23-cv-64-DKW-WRP
ROBERT CODY KIEFFER II,
ORDER DISMISSING COMPLAINT
Plaintiffs, WITH PREJUDICE
vs.
GOOGLE, PAYPAL, FACEBOOK,
TWITTER, INSTAGRAM, TIKTOK,
et al.,
Defendants.
On February 2, 2023, Plaintiff Carmela Lynn Jackson, proceeding pro se,
filed a Complaint against several social media websites and their executives. Dkt.
No. 1 (“Complaint”). As with several other complaints this Plaintiff has recently
filed in this Court, the Complaint is indecipherable.1 It alleges the injecting and
tracking of individuals through “bit frequencies” and the charging of “humans’
wires” as forms of “modern day slavery” with no evident connection to any of the
named Defendants. Jackson also filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis
(IFP). Dkt. No. 3.
1See e.g., Jackson v. State of Indiana, et al., Civil No. 23-cv-00053-DKW-WRP, and Jackson v.
Michael Jackson, the “Jackson 5”, et al., Civil No. 23-cv-00061-DKW-WRP.
Plaintiff's unhinged allegations have no place in this Court, and nothing can
be done to cure the Complaint’s deficiencies. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B);
Fed.R.Civ.P. 8(a); Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678 (2009); Ashelman v. Pope,
793 F.2d 1072, 1078 (9th Cir. 1986) (citation omitted) (no opportunity to amend
need be permitted where amendment would clearly be futile). The Complaint is
DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE, the IFP application is DENIED as moot, and
the Clerk is instructed to CLOSE this case.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
DATED: February 7, 2023 at Honolulu, Hawat‘1.
