Dasisa v. Howard University
Opinion of the Court
JUDGMENT
This appeal was considered on the record from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia and on the brief filed by the appellant, the supplement thereto, and appellant’s appendix and the supplement to the appendix. It is
ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that the district court’s order filed November 28, 2005 be affirmed. The district court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing the complaint without prejudice on the ground that it did not state a claim upon which relief can be granted and did not meet the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 8(a). See 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b)(2). The dismissal without prejudice allows the appellant to file a new complaint containing a “short and plain statement” of the basis for the federal court’s jurisdiction and a “short and plain statement” of the claim or claims showing that he is entitled to relief. Fed.R.Civ.P. 8(a)(1), (2); see Ciralsky v. CIA 355 F.3d 661, 668-70 (D.C.Cir. 2004).
Pursuant to D.C. Circuit Rule 36, this disposition will not be published. The Clerk is directed to withhold issuance of the mandate herein until seven days after resolution of any timely petition for rehearing or petition for rehearing en banc. See Fed. R.App. P. 41(b); D.C.Cir. Rule 41.
