Re: Plaintiff’s alleged FOIA requests against backdrop of his claims of “alleged mind-control program”
Disposition: Dismissing plaintiff’s complaint without prejudice
- Litigation Considerations, Pleadings: The court holds that “Plaintiff's complaint does not contain sufficient facts to state a claim.” “Plaintiff neither attaches a copy of the actual requests submitted nor references a FOIA or Privacy Act request number.” “Indeed, the complaint is devoid of any details regarding these purported requests beyond the Plaintiff’s broad interest in exposing the federal government’s alleged mind-control program.” “Absent this information, the complaint does not state a plausible claim.”
