No. 5 ORDER

Document Smith v. City of North Las Vegas et al, 2:25-cv-00525, No. 5 (D.Nev. Mar. 26, 2025)
In this removed case, Greg Smith, counseled, brings this civil-rights action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 for events that took place while he was incarcerated at the North Las Vegas Correctional Facility.
Smith is no longer incarcerated1, and defendants have paid the $405 filing fee for this civil action.
In light of Smith’s non-incarceration and the payment of the filing fee, I am no longer required to screen this case.
See generally 28 U.S.C. § 1915A (the plaintiff is no longer a prisoner within the meaning of the statute); see Olivas v. Nevada ex rel.
Dep’t of Corr., 856 F.3d 1281, 1282 (9th Cir. 2017) (holding that “28 U.S.C. § 1915A applies only to claims brought by individuals incarcerated at the time they file their complaints”); see Lopez v. Smith, 203 F.3d 1122, 1126, 1129 (9th Cir. 2000) (recognizing that screening under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e) applies to actions filed in forma pauperis whether or not the plaintiff is incarcerated).
