A federal court has pulled the plug on a Pennsylvania man’s claim that his civil rights were violated when he was muted out of an online video game.

The ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit should de-activate the latest lawsuit filed by serial litigator Amro Elansari of Exton.

This time around, Elansari claimed in his largely handwritten lawsuit that Jagex Inc., based in the United Kingdom, and several Chinese firms violated his rights to free speech and due process of law when he was muted out of an unnamed streaming game in March 2019.


Elansari claimed he had 2,000 hours “invested” in the game when he was booted out. Jagex denied his appeal of the muting without telling him why, he contended. As far as damages, he sought “whatever the jury sees fit,” plus de-muting so he could get back into the online action.

U.S. Eastern District Judge Mark A. Kearney allowed Ansari to pursue the case as a pauper, then promptly dismissed the suit on grounds that Elansari hadn’t made any real constitutional claims. That’s when Elansari appealed to the circuit court.

Like Kearney, the circuit judges didn’t buy Elansari’s claim that he had been subjected to illegal “unequal treatment…compared to all other players who are not muted.” Nothing that happened to Elansari in the Jagex dispute equated to a violation of federal anti-discrimination laws, the circuit court found.

This is the second time in two months that the circuit judges have deep-sixed a lawsuit filed by Elansari. In November, they refused to reinstate a case he lodged claiming he was scammed by the Tinder dating app.


As mentioned, not his first rodeo

In 2016, the state Superior Court denied an appeal Elansari filed after he was arrested by Bloomsburg University police for lighting up a marijuana joint in front of several campus cops. Elansari, who was convicted of possessing a small amount of marijuana and fined $100, claimed he was challenging the constitutionality of Pennsylvania’s drug laws.

This guy sounds like every insufferable stoner I ever smoked weed with who would proselytize about how THE MAN was violating their RIGHTS. Like yeah I agree but just shut the gently caress up for a second you're 2 weeks late on the rent BRIAN.
