Cardello-Smith v. Combs et al

The Court dismissed the case without prejudice because Plaintiff Derrick Lee Cardello-Smith, a prisoner, is barred from proceeding in forma pauperis under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g) due to having at least seven prior civil rights complaints dismissed as frivolous, malicious, or for failing to state a claim. He did not pay the full filing fee ($350) and administrative fee ($55), and his allegations of a 1997 sexual assault by Sean Combs do not meet the imminent-danger exception. His application to proceed without prepaying fees (ECF No. 7) was denied, and his Notice of Removal (ECF No. 6) was denied as moot.
