IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF NORTH CAROLINA
ASHEVILLE DIVISION
CIVIL ACTION NO. 1:25-CV-00371-KDB
PEARL BUCHANAN,
Plaintiff,
v. MEMORANDUM AND
ORDER
FRANK BISIGNANO,
COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL
SECURITY,
Defendant.
In this Social Security Administration (“SSA”) dispute, Plaintiff Pearl Buchanan alleges
that her disability payments were improperly discontinued and that SSA has wrongly claimed that
she owes it $3,000 in back pay.1 Doc. No. 1 at 4. Plaintiff further alleges that she has appealed the
determination, but that the outcome of her appeal has not been determined. Id. at 8. Now before
the Court is Defendant Commissioner of Social Security’s Motion to Dismiss (Doc. No. 6)
Plaintiff’s Complaint for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, or in the alternative, for failure to state
a claim. Despite the Court issuing a Roseboro Order to Plaintiff, (Doc. No. 7), she has failed to
respond and the time to do so has expired.
After a thorough review of Plaintiff’s bare bones Complaint, the Court finds the Motion to
have merit and adopts Defendant’s jurisdictional reasoning in support of the motion. Accordingly,
for good cause shown, the Court will GRANT the motion and dismiss the Complaint without
prejudice for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.
1 The Court notes that Plaintiff writes in nearly indecipherable cursive and respectfully
suggests that any future communications with a court be typed for the Court’s and her own benefit.
