    Nathan E. JACOBS, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Mr. Christopher CRAFT, Chaplin, Defendant-Appellee.
    No. 16-6485
    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
    Submitted: January 12, 2017
    Decided: January 18, 2017
    Nathan E. Jacobs, Appellant Pro Se.
    Before GREGORY, Chief Judge, and MOTZ and AGEE, Circuit Judges.
   Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Nathan Jacobs appeals the district court’s order dismissing his Bivens complaint. Because the district court incorrectly determined that Jacobs has three qualifying strikes under the Prison Litigation Reform Act (PLRA), 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g) (2012), we vacate the order of dismissal and remand.

In concluding that Jacobs had three strikes under the PLRA at the time he filed the subject complaint, the district court relied on Jacobs v. U.S.A. Supreme Court Clerk, Civ. Action No. 10-1332, 2010 WL 3123169 (D.D.C. Aug. 9, 2010) (unpublished); Jacobs v. Supreme Court of the United States, No. 10-5271, 2011 WL 2199975 (D.C. Cir. May 17, 2011) (unpublished) “(Supreme Court”); and Jacobs v. Holder, No. 4:10-cv-1544, 2010 WL 4449357 (N.D. Ohio Nov. 1, 2010) (unpublished). We conclude that the district court erred in finding that Supreme Court properly qualifies as a strike.

In Supreme Court, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit denied relief, stating that “[b]ecause the appropriate disposition is so clear, summary action is warranted.” 2011 WL 2199975, at *1. However, the court did not reference § 1915 or state that Jacobs’ appeal was frivolous, malicious, or failed to state a claim for relief. In light of our decision in Blakely v. Wards, 738 F.3d 607 (4th Cir. 2013) (en banc), in which we emphasized the importance of the express language used by the adjudicating court, id. at 613-15, 617, we conclude that the language in Supreme Court does not evidence a PLRA strike.

Accordingly, we vacate the order of dismissal and remand for further proceedings. We deny Jacobs’ pending motion. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
