   Order

   ORDER. The court has closely reviewed the self-represented Plaintiff's Complaint with special solicitude. See Triestman v. Fed. Bureau of Prisons, 470 F.3d 471, 474-75 (2d Cir. 2006) (per curiam). But as the court explains, the Complaint will be dismissed with leave to amend.
   
   A district court may dismiss a case brought in forma pauperis if it determines that "the action or appeal... is frivolous or malicious; [or] fails to state a claim on which relief may be granted." 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e). "A court may dismiss a claim as 'factually frivolous' only if the sufficiently well-pleaded facts are 'clearly baseless' - that is, if they are 'fanciful,' 'fantastic,' or 'delusional.'" Burton v. USA, No. 21-CV-6238 (LDH)(LB), 2022 WL 1093217, at *2 (E.D.N.Y. Apr. 12, 2022) (quoting Denton v. Hernandez, 504 U.S. 25, 32-33 (1992)).
   
   Here, Plaintiff seeks to recover from dozens of defendants, including the Board of Directors of Spirit Airlines, the Rockefeller and Rothschild estates, the President of Uganda, government ministers in Uganda, and the European Central Bank. As best the court can tell, Plaintiff contends that Defendants improperly transferred large sums of money from Plaintiff's inheritance in 2008. ECF No. 1, at 5. Large parts of the Complaint focus on the quadrillions of dollars or euros that Plaintiff says were improperly transferred at different points in recent decades. The Complaint does not invoke any causes of action, so the court cannot infer whether it has subject-matter jurisdiction. The court therefore dismisses the action sua sponte because the action is factually frivolous, fails to state a claim for relief on which relief can be granted, and for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e); Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(h). Because Plaintiff is proceeding pro se, Plaintiff may file an amended complaint setting forth facts that state a viable claim for relief on or before August 17, 2026. If Plaintiff does not respond by that deadline, the court will close the case.
