Craig v US – Cleaning up the Docket

Three summons returned after the Judge had already sua sponte dismissed the case

01/07/2011 10 SUMMONS Returned Executed by Steven Lee Craig. United States of America served on 12/20/2010. (cps) (Entered: 01/10/2011)
01/07/2011 9 SUMMONS Returned Executed by Steven Lee Craig. Department of Homeland Security served on 12/30/2010. (cps) (Entered: 01/07/2011)
01/18/2011 14 SUMMONS Returned Executed as to DHS by Steven Lee Craig. (cps) (Entered: 01/18/2011)

And then the Judge denied a motion by Craig to amend Judgment by stating that there is no judicially accepted definition of ‘natural born’

01/14/2011 13 ORDER denying 12 Motion for Amended Judgment and Additional Findings. Signed by Honorable Robin J. Cauthron on 1/14/11. (lg, ) (Entered: 01/14/2011)

01/13/2011 12 MOTION for AMENDED Judgment by Steven Lee Craig. (cps) (Entered: 01/13/2011)

Pro se’s in action can be  so fascinating to watch. And guess what, Craig is appealing!!! Because the Judge dismissed before the defendant even had the opportunity to respond :-)

Craig v US – Ruling US Court of Appeals 10th Circuit

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
TENTH CIRCUIT
STEVEN LEE CRAIG,
Plaintiff – Appellant,
v.
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Defendant – Appellee.
No. 09-6082
(D.C. No. CV-09-343-F)
(W.D. Okla.)

ORDER AND JUDGMENT*

* This Order and Judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel.  It may be cited, however, for its persuasive value consistent with Fed. R. App. P. 32.1 and 10th Cir. R. 32.1.  After examining the Plaintiff’s brief and the appellate record, this three-judge panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not be of material assistance in the determination of this appeal.  See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a). The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.

Before KELLY, BRISCOE, and HOLMES, Circuit Judges.

Plaintiff-Appellant Steven Lee Craig appeals from the district court’s dismissal of his claims against the United States.  Exercising jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and affording solicitous consideration to Mr. Craig’s pro se filings, see Van Deelen v. Johnson, 497 F.3d 1151, 1153 n.1 (10th Cir. 2007), we affirm the district court’s order insofar as it dismisses the action, but we remand to the district court to modify the dismissal to be without prejudice.
