Farmer v. Police Department of Carrboro
Opinion
Jeffrey Thomas Farmer appeals the district court’s order and judgment dismissing as frivolous his civil rights complaint against the Police Department of Carrboro, North Carolina. The court properly noted that Farmer’s complaint was filed in the wrong district and he could not seek punitive damages against a municipality under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000). We have *524 reviewed the record and dismiss the appeal as frivolous. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal con-. tentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
