The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
Jonathan Angel Ramos appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment
dismissing his action alleging federal and state law claims. We have jurisdiction
under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review for an abuse of discretion a dismissal as
frivolous under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(i). Denton v. Hernandez, 504 U.S. 25,
33 (1992). We affirm.
The district court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing as frivolous
Ramos’s action because the complaint contained fanciful factual allegations and
lacked any arguable basis in law or fact. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(i)
(requiring dismissal of a frivolous complaint filed in forma pauperis); Neitzke v.
Williams, 490 U.S. 319, 325 (1989) (explaining that a complaint “is frivolous
where it lacks an arguable basis either in law or in fact,” and “[the] term ‘frivolous’
. . . embraces not only the inarguable legal conclusion, but also the fanciful factual
allegation”).
We reject as unsupported by the record Ramos’s contention that he was
denied due process.
All pending motions and requests are denied.
AFFIRMED.
