Joseph PIRELA, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Jeff ATKIN, Clerk of Court, Supreme Court of the United States, Case No. 177-M53 Appeal; Ileana Ros-Lehtinen; House of Representatives, The Congress of the United States of America; House of Prostitution of Unknown Bar of Homosexuals, (Sex Workers Transvestites-Prostitutes); Aloyma Sanchez; Judge Thomas Williams; Miami Police Department; The State of Florida Proceedings Prosecutions; Unknown Bar of Homosexuals; Transvestites Unknown; Sex Workers 33 Health Care Baker Act of Jackson Hospital; (4) Transvestite Matthew John, Prostitute Homosexual; David Countin, (1) Client; Don Smith; Unknown Transvestite Bar Prostitute of Bar of Homosexuals Unknown, (9); Denis Fonseca; Angel Miranda; Carlos Alvarez; City of Miami, Defendants-Appellees.
Joseph Pirela appeals the district court's order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) (2012). We have reviewed the record and find that this appeal is frivolous. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for the reasons stated by the district court. Pirela v. Atkin, No. 5:17-cv-00559-D, 2017 WL 6626332 (E.D.N.C. Dec. 28, 2017). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
