Presidential Candidate Number P60005535 (also known as Ronald Satish Emrit) & Presidential Committee/Political Action Committee/Separate Segregated Fund (SSF) Number C00569897 d/b/a United Emrits of America v. Former President Barack Hussein Obama (BHO), Michelle Obama, Former President Joe Biden, Jill Biden, Hunter Biden, Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown-Jackson, Former Prince Andrew of the Windsors, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer

Emrit v. Obama · United States District Court for the District of Idaho · May 15, 2026 · No. 1:26-cv-00219-DCN

Summary

The United States District Court for the District of Idaho denies as moot the plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis and dismisses the complaint without leave to amend. The court finds the complaint frivolous, difficult to understand, and insufficient to state a claim under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2). The court also concludes that the notice of interlocutory appeal is ineffective because no judgment had been entered.

Holdings

  1. The plaintiff did not establish that he was unable to pay the filing fee because his application showed discretionary monthly income and funds in a checking account.
  2. The complaint was frivolous and failed to state a claim because it presented incomprehensible, fantastical allegations and no cognizable facts or legal theories sufficient to support relief.
  3. Dismissal without leave to amend was proper because it was absolutely clear that amendment could not cure the complaint's defects.
  4. The notice of interlocutory appeal was ineffective because it was filed before any judgment had been entered.

Questions Presented

  1. Whether the plaintiff established indigence sufficient to proceed in forma pauperis.
  2. Whether the complaint was frivolous or failed to state a claim under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B).
  3. Whether the complaint should be dismissed without leave to amend because amendment could not cure its defects.
  4. Whether the notice of interlocutory appeal was effective when filed before entry of judgment.
